With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Tamarix Leafhopper sighting in Madrid on a given day, based on 20 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 191st most-seen of the 457 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June and July
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Tamarix Leafhopper in Madrid on a given day, against under 5% in August to May, the lowest months. Those are among Madrid's driest months, with about 15 mm of rain a month against 65 mm in October.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Tamarix Leafhopper is recorded against all the insects logged in Madrid (20 verified sightings), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
