Bugs won’t disappear from plants

@colfrewil

It looks like a plant image and the descriptions on them don't match.
And because the description causes the interaction of sim with the plant, despite the fact that you can see the dry soil, the plant doesn't require watering.
I have this phenomenon when it comes to watering. However, with flies, I don't have this problem as you, because after a longer observation I discovered that it was bees.
If the flies show up, this spraying option will also show up. But this option is very rare.
I wonder if it doesn't have something to do with changing the calendar - the lengthening of the seasons.

Maybe try to repair the game in Origin.
Origin / Library - right click on TS4 - option "Repair game"
You have to wait until Origin will fix all packs, not only the base game.
I think I have to do it too, however, it hadn't bothered me so far

I don't work for EA
