As a general rule the insects are only interested in the already dead wood.

Someone might contradict me there with a greater knowledge.

 

People are often surprised at the very shot life span of ornamental cherries 25/30 years and they’re already in serious decline.

 

Plant another one nearby.

A simple help for that tree is mulch soil underneath to stabilise soil moisture ( inch or two of chip or gravel) after you have hand weeded it or used geotextile mat before putting chip on. The damage is already there but the canopy is vigourous and will keep feeding the tree growth, giving it a chance of staying ahead of that decay. K
