I hate to be a naysayer but I will. My opinion, and it’s worth what you paid for it, is to not plant the lemon tree.

On a separate note my cousin just returned from a 4-month stay in Italy where he has a home with some acreage. He has olive trees planted. I asked if he saw any snakes, since I truly hate snakes. He said not this time. He had a company put out rat traps and as he said “no rats, no snakes.” Just this one persons opinion.
