Bad enough that Sims will come over and eat your food (though you get yelled at for doing the same)
But I just caught Grim - Grim! of all people - stealing my flowers after he reaped my cat.
How long as this been going on? Is it a bug or a feature?
Edit for clarity - I mean he harvested my plants, and they didn't end up in my household inventory.

He did that in my game too! He showed up to reap the family cow and then detoured to the garden to steal ALL of the harvestables. ALL of them!! That garden has one of every single harvestable in the game (grafted so that it's fewer plants) and he tried to harvest them all.

I have since built a fence around both garden areas and set the gates to household-only. Because other visitors were doing it too, not just Grimmy.

I suspect the NAP that encourages people to love gardening is at play with just how much everyone wanted to go steal my harvestables. Do you have that NAP active too, @DaWaterRat?

I was suspicious of visitors, because they'd get a flower thought bubble and do the harvesting motion, but it was usually after I'd harvested for the day so I didn't worry about it.

Fortunately, the Plasma fruit trees, Forgotten Hollow plants, and really valuable flowers are down in the basement hot house which is locked for household only (and only accessible by ladder)
