I need advice about my Hawthorne Tree

Help! does anyone know anything about SouthWestern disease in deciduous trees? I have a gorgeous Toba Hawthorne tree that's having trouble. Every year the bark cracks and lifts and insects winter underneath. Eventually they will invade and kill the tree. A Gardener told me it was from the trunk being exposed to hot sun in the summer and if I paint it white it will prevent this however, this spring I've just gone and checked it and sure enough....same problem and after peeling off the cracked bark there a lots of earwig and other larvae underneath. Any recomendations?
