No, I don't worry about something as benign as neem oil or pyrethrins. My garden soil is teeming with worms, toads, lizards and ladybugs. If it isn't bothering them it probably won't bother me.
Lighten up folks. Tomato leaves are poisonous as are many parts of the plants we consume every day. If I was that worried about poisoning I surely wouldn't be handling these deadly tomato plants every day.
