May

Things to expect:

Citrus food drop.
Grapeleaf skeletonizers.
Desert insect migration.
Aphids on Ash trees.
Desiccation of tips and edges of leaves, and rose pedals - caused by hot, dry air, worsened by thrips.

Things to do:

Fertilize summer lawns.

Don’t let weeds get to seed - mow often.
Watering needs increase with the onset of another hot, dry desert summer :)
Protect bark of trees and limbs from sunburn.
Dethatch Bermuda lawns.
Plant summer lawns.
Agave Snout Weevil control should start at end of month thru June.
