  • if anyone could repley what carnivouris (bad spelling) plant do you think would work the best at keeping bugs away sundew nepenthe flytrap or cobra lilly

  • hmm. i wonder what it wud be like if i was that bug. *shivers*

  • hahahahaha suck to be that earwig

  • my pitcher plant doesnt have any water in the pitcher :(

  • going to hydroplonicaly grow one of these giving them a bug a day:P

  • do you know the one in the amazon one thats giant and red that makes a foul smell ? i want to look it up

  • @wolffe23 that one is called da raffeselia and it is not carnovorius is smells like rotten meat and flys help polinate it

  • very cool! i've been trying to get my hands on these for a long time but never could. any tips on getting one please? oh and what would happened if someone drank the liquid inside it?

  • That liqiuid is a sort of stomach acid/venom

  • you can get these in Sarracenia northwest they still sell them but small like pitcher up to 3-6inches but they still good, oh and if you drank the liquid you can get sick by the bacteria in the pitcher

  • i got mine at the sand diego zoo go to your local zoo they prob have them in the soverneir shop (inside)

  • WAHOO, one less bug in the world

  • what is that luiqid name? will it burn you if you touch it?

  • Comment removed

  • Oh... i thought it was some weird liquid lol!

  • Wrong. It contains enzymes which digest the trapped insect. It wouldn't burn or likely be strong enough to affect a finger or something human like that.

    This is basic information you would have got from watching any of the 100 videos on this plant. Brudof was obviously just pulling it out his ass.

  • @Brudof no.. sad to say it is not water.

  • Now we know what the La Brea tar pits are like....

  • There is no getting out, each new attempt must be exhausting trying to climb the almost vertical slippery wall.

  • once your inside,therez no way you can get out,so dont waste your breaths ants!

  • Fool, if you're in the fluids....you're dead. No need to struggle.

  • I'd love to have one of these , starting by trying to grow a venus flytrap right now which should be a challenge in winter in the UK

  • death by plant. thats how i want to go.

  • Sarlacc.

  • i was just thinking the same thing

  • The pic fell in the damn thing!!

  • What an extremely horrible death for an insect. Who would think of being eatan by a plant!

  • i know right? weren't plants at the very bottom of the food chain?

  • "Bugs check in - they don't check out"

  • can someone make a vid of wat it looks like inside it. and can someone tell me wat it feels like when u put ur hand in it. also the description makes me think those plants r alot more dangerous. lets put of a sigh saying beware of sun dews. THAT MEANS U WASPS!

  • Putting your hand in this, or any other pitfall carnivorous plant like pitcher plants, does nothing more than wet your hand. The digestive enzymes work very slowly. Insects drown and form a slow-release fertilizer for the plant. They don't digest like animals with strong acids, they use very weak acids and enzymes.

  • Actually sun pitchers and a few other plants are more of "Digestion by proxy" which means the water contains no or a tiny bit of enzymes. The plant collects it from rain. The bug is digested by bacteria and other microorganisms. That takes longer.

  • hey piranahboy01, i got 1 for xmas and i was wondering how often i should feed it crickets , urs seems to be doin good so im askin u

  • Do you know how to care for it? the biggest thing is that you keep it soaked with good humidity dapplled light or direct morning sun and bright light. Another nessecity is that you give it warm days and nights in the 50s or 60s farenheight. He advised me before to only feed it small food such as a couple of ants now and then until it acclimates toyour climate and will eat more. Ive had one for about 2 months and its only gotten amoth and some ats but its doing great despite my afuly low humidity

  • btw I was was talking to utterbeastage. Pirranhaboy obviously knows how to grow helaimphora.

  • @Piranhaboy01 lol obesely will just wet ur hands

  • I stuck my hand in one of those b4

  • I vid'd this in my backyard. I am going to vid others as well although I will have to do that inside my house as it is winter here. Thanks!

  • where did you tape this? You should try to get more footage like this! nice vid btw
