Fertilizer
A foliar iron spray darkens the lawn's color without forcing the leaf growth a nitrogen feeding would, which is exactly what summer-stressed turf needs. Iron is taken up directly through the leaves, so results show in days rather than weeks.
Shallow soil temperatures are in the action band at 107.6°F at the Ford Dry Lake sensor, 29 miles from your location.
Window: Jun 1 to Aug 31. Window typically open for 2 to 3 weeks.
Cultivation
Warm-season grasses grow most aggressively in summer and benefit from frequent, slightly-higher mowing — typically 1.5-2.5 inches for bermuda, 2-2.5 for zoysia, 3-4 for St. Augustine. Mowing too short scalps the lawn and exposes soil to weed seeds.

Window: Jun 1 to Aug 31. Window typically open for 2 to 3 weeks.
Pest
White grubs are the larvae of Japanese beetles, June bugs, and similar species, and they feed on grass roots through summer. Catching the first generation in early summer, before significant root damage, makes preventive insecticide much more effective than rescue treatments.

Fertilizer
A mid-summer nitrogen feeding sustains the bermudagrass or zoysia growth started in late spring, feeding the most active growth phase of the year. Skipping it leaves a thinner canopy heading into the late-summer disease and weed window.

Soil at 2 inches is currently 108°F. White-grub emergence watch is in window now. That is 8°F above the 30-year normal for this date. Data from USDA Soil Climate Analysis Network (SCAN), 29 miles away at Ford Dry Lake.
Keep pets and children off treated areas for 4 hours after application.
Air temperatures above 90°F can volatilize the product or stress the lawn. Wait for cooler conditions.
Air temperatures below 60°F slow uptake and reduce efficacy. Wait for warmer conditions.
Apply at least 4 hours before forecast rain so the product binds before runoff.
Re-entry interval is not required for this product.
Air temperatures above 95°F can volatilize the product or stress the lawn. Wait for cooler conditions.
Air temperatures below 65°F slow uptake and reduce efficacy. Wait for warmer conditions.
Apply at least 24 hours before forecast rain so the product binds before runoff.
