I guess I'd like to know a couple things.  How old is the tree? Has it been pruned lately? By "hosing it off", I'm wondering if that might not be adding to the problem by keeping it too damp.  Try drying it out a little.  Otherwise, it might need a "dormant oil". Lastly, have you tried using a mild detergent?
