Continue deep watering (especially immediately prior to any spraying). Keep up monthly fertilizing. Cut spent blooms and seal canes. Alternate type of sprays for both insects and diseases. Often spraying for disease is not needed during the heat of summer. Do not spray when temperatures are over 85 degrees. Wear protective clothing and goggles, gloves, mask and sturdy shoes. Wash protective clothing separately from other clothing and remember to clean off eyeglasses. Apply additional mulch around bushes to bring level to several inches deep to conserve water and keep the soil cooler. Questions, contact a local Consulting Rosarian.
