  • "The Ciiiircle of Liiiiiifeeee!"

    btw - your apartment must have reeked while that mouse festered.

  • @JABS991 most peeps think the mouse festered and smelled... festering involves an animal being colonized by bacteria and maggots and the smell of ammonia is awful. here, the enzymes from the plant slowly dissolved the mouse under fluid and absorbed most of the nitrogenous compounds that create the ammonia smell. in a nutshell, i couldn't smell the digesting mouse whatsoever unless i stuck my nose in the pitcher.

  • 1. How long did it take for the mouse to die?

    2. Looks like the trap becomes useless ... is that so?

    3. Is the mouse unable to bite his way through the wall?

    4. How long to digest the mouse into slime?

  • @ImLDSRU2 1. 2 minutes; 2. no; 3. no; 4. 2 months

  • @Piranhaboy01 Wow.. 2 minutes! What is the mechanism of death? I have seen mice live for HOURS in water ... swimming around.. so what kills them?

  • @ImLDSRU2 the liquid inside the pitcher is thicker than water and much more difficult to swim in. it's designed to soak an animal causing it to sink deeper, and then make it tougher by increasing the viscosity of the digestive fluid. a person could swim the English channel... but wouldn't make 100 ft if it's filled with oil
