Gooey peach, yuck!
What can I do for my peach tree?
The same problem for two years in a row with my peach tree. Last year, we noticed Curley leaves on our peach tree soon after that we discovered that most of our still green peaches had a gooey substance in the actual peach. Well, this year the same problem again, I believe it is a Stone Peach type. Ace recommended Loquid-Cop, copper Fungicide and Horticultural, fungicide, insecticide/Miticide to treat curl leave and possibly fungi problem also it was recommended to dust the tree with the Sevin dust.First, in early spring when I first noticed the curl leaves on my peach tree, i immediately took most of them off along with the gooey peaches. We sprayed it with the two liquid recommended. A week later dusted with the Sevin dust and so the following week as well. Getting tired of this process doing over and over again to only find out that out peaches have still been getting gooey ness (I was told that it is a larvae from an insect/bug) and I continually have to inspect for this problem. We live in California. I have come to the conclusion that i’d Like to cut off my peach tree. Does anybody else have the same problem and found a natural solution to get rid of the same problem? Unfortunately, any pest solution that i’ve Encountered is controlable but not curable. UGH!!!PLEASE, HELP!!!
Inside the peach, more gooey ness

I’ve had it for a few years and it seems every year they get worse, the taste that is. Now I just pick them and throw them away. What a waste.....
Oh My! That's discouraging. At this point I would contact your local Ag Extension- their advice is free. Another option would be to call in and have a consult with an arborist. That may cost a few dollars, but worth it if you want to try and save the tree. Where in CA are you? I am by Magic Mountain.
