Yes, there are two chemicals that are very effective. Dinotefuran, fast acting and remains effective for about 2 years and Imidacloprid, slow acting which remains effective for about 4 years. I'd recommend getting a professional to determine if your trees are good candidates for treatment. If they're too far gone they wont have strong enough vascular system flow to draw the treatment into the branches and canopy. Search on the internet for further info, several university extensions and/or arborist sites have lots of info. I hope you can salvage them.
