worms eating my apple blossoms

Hi, I have several apple trees in pre bloom at the moment and have several tiny caterpiller or web worms eating my new shoots and bloosoms. They tend to get into the new shoot as it opens and hide in an uncurled leaf. I have had them in the past later in the year as they seem to come more than once and sprayed for them but am unsure if I can spray for them now since I am close to bloom and do not want to hurt any pollenizers. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appericated. Also any idea on what type of pest this might be would also be helpful, I have looked for it on the web but haven't found what it could be.

Thank you for your time,

Doyle
