The leaves on the orange and lemon trees are drying and curling with something eating the leaves, whilst leaving a trail (brown in color) on the leaf. Can you please help?

Leafminer is a very common citrus insect problem, causing the leaves to distort and curl. It is easily identified - edges curled and a pale green track or whitish lines running over the surface of the leaf. When the leaf miner is your problem, cut off the affected areas.
