common are worth 5, uncommon are worth 20, and rare are worth 40

Admits to being another of the "swing like an idjit" and half the time still miss the lil beggar. Love the game! really dispise some of them picky customers, especially the ones who spend enough time examining the plant for it to die of old age before he\she gets up from his scientific squatting in front of it to check out the pot and walk away. How bloody long does it take to decide if you like the plant or not????????
Also LOVE the new look of these customers. Great hats!

Well I personnally like the background in the collections screen. Also, I found that if you click on the jar the insect not only moves around but the lower screen area will tell you what it is....like uncommon cockroach, common lady _bug_ and so on.

As for catching these bugs, I have a technique that nets them about 35% of the time, wait for them to land. As long as you are carrying the watering pot, soil, shears etc they won't move, then gently pick up your net, and laterally move from the top of the screen towards the insect, (Dangit, I just lost a plant while typing this) anyway creep up on them then swat. If you miss, quickly go to the top of the screen and take one more swat at it, if you miss after two swats give up. They'll be back, promise.

Does anyone have ALL the bugs yet? I'm only at 30 of 48 right now, but I finally got the Level 2 net so that should make them easier to catch!

I believe some bugs only appear with certain plants/flowers. I have 38 of 48 now and only a level 2 net. I have quite a few rare/uncommon, can't wait to see the last few.
