Thank you! I am actually considering the series idea. I love those characters a lot, and I just really like writing silly & cute stories like this.
I didn't know about neem oil! When I was living in the city, I actually went ahead and bought live ladybugs for my plants, which inspired this little game. The ladybugs didn't stay very long, so after buying and releasing a silly amount of them on my balcony I gave up and used a solution with black soap instead. I wish I had known about neem oil instead :D
I should know better than to do such generalizations (like, when people complain about "chemicals" in food, I want to tell them, "everything is chemical!!!"). I will keep it in mind for the future, thank you!
