Thank you. Yes, it does help. I don't recall seeing the Eco Lifestyle bug boxes. I've only begun playing again after years of taking a break. Now, everything is so different and because of changing computers several times, I needed to buy and download all over again. Perhaps they are in an upgrade I haven't downloaded yet. Thanks again. I wasn't aware of the flowers and such. She has containers saying various fertilizers in her storage, so thought I was missing something as to why they didn't pop up in menu. 😉
hermettte You have to have the Eco Lifestyle expansion pack to have the bug boxes. You can find them in the build/buy catalog.
And you shouldn't have to buy any pack you owned when you stopped buying them again as long as you haven't changed platforms. Those are all tied to your EA Account and once you get the EA App up and running and log in with the same username and password you used before, you can get the base game and all the packs you own downloaded all in one go. How long the install takes can vary depending on your internet download speed. The only thing you'll need to buy are the packs you don't already own. That said, if you switch platforms, say from PC or Mac to a console, you will have to buy everything new or vice versa. You won't have to buy the base game new though as that is now free to everyone on all platforms.
Hope this helps.
