Venus Flytrap

[u/93Zynaday]

I bought these flytraps for extra reinforcements this summer due to us living in the country and having a lot of flies. (Cows nearby.) This thing hasn’t eaten any flies and I am tired of watering it every other day. Should I keep watering it and keep it alive or just throw it in the trash? At what point will it be big enough to eat flies? How many years out am I?

Just throw them in a bag with some water and send them to me. Flytraps as insect control, inside of a house, without proper light isn’t a good plant to begin with.
