Go to your nursery and find out what kind of oil you need to spray. This is the time of year to do it, up until it gets warm. Pick a day with no wind and cover up, wear a mask as the stuff is toxic.

Just trying to help here, so don't get upset. I don't know much about Peach tree borers or even what they are, but the best way to kill them would be to cut down the tree and burn it. Probably would defeat the purpose though.

neem oil sprayed heavily at the base of the tree, then also covering the trunk and the leaves. It will kill the cycle of the borer, however, if you infestation is heavy and especially if you have other trees, you may want to consider destroying the infected tree. also if you see the holes in the trunk of the tree, wiggle a wire in there, this will sometimes kill the worms. Neem oil has saved both my peach tree and my cherry tree. Just be patient as it takes time to do it's thing.

Get two blocks of wood, about three inches square. Put the bug in one block, crush with the other.
