How do I stop a tent worm invasion?

I live on 40 wooded acres in Arkansas. This year, for the first time we are invaded with thousands of tent worms. They are on our fruit trees, ornamentals, the house, our legs if you stand still for 10 seconds, and anything outside. Spraying with Sevin kills them but there are so many it seems senseless. How do we get rid of them and keep them away?
