Borax for tortoise beetles??

I just identified the munchers on my morning glory family vines as tortoise beetles and can't find much on the web on organic treatments. I read that a borax/water solution will work for lots of insects, including some types of beetles. Anyone try this? I don't want to harm the ladybugs for sure! What else cheap might work? It's hard to spray the leaves very thoroughly with the size of the vines by now. I appreciate any ideas!
