How many days did we start with on this quest? I have been visiting the maximum (10 people) every day and selecting all butterflies first at each neighbor (3 each) so 30 butterflies accessed at friends each day for 7 days for a total of 210. I have had very few nets drop each day. But that's not the worst part. I don't have even one collection completed. Worst - I HAVEN'T COLLECTED A SINGLE BUTTERFLY.
I don't think there has every been a mission with worse drop rates! What a waste of time this is. I could have been launching rockets.
You can click on 5 butterflies per neighbor giving you 50 attempts at a net.
Visit the neighbor,
Click the three butterflies, don't click anything else.
Leave neighbor (I go visit another one)
Return to the neighbor and you can then get two more butterflies.
