Default hemlock woolly adelgid - Pesticides and/or Asian Lady Beetles

Hey group,
Southern NY here. Yes my 100 ft row of hemlock hedges maybe 6.5 ft
high, are afflicted. I noticed them declining last fall. And now that
I know what the cause is, I can see that they are pretty bad, I don't
want to lose them so I immeadiatley called 'Chem Lawn' to spray em.

Since then, I have also been looking into the Asian predator lady
beetles and I figure for such a low natural cost its worth a shot.
Maybe native beetles would help as well?

My question is to veterans of this problem. What did you do, how did
it go, what would you do differently, did the beetles move in and eat
your young....
