I lost my first tree to these. A 2015 bench graft of NY35 Bonkers. Had a couple apples last year. Leafed out poorly this spring. The sign of these beetles are short sawdust frass sticking out from the tree. With the rain, it wasn't quite like that but saw dust around the many holes. Cut it down and will burn it. The inside at one spot looked like this below. I guess most of the damage is done by fungus they bring in.
