    My rule is that when I notice none of the traps are digesting anything I wait about a week before refeeding

    Yes, please donā€™t use tap water. My VFT is having issues because I didnā€™t realize I should be using distilled or rain water. Iā€™m going to have to change out his soil now, which Iā€™m not looking forward to. Oh, and I feed my flytrap about every 2 weeks, which seems to keep him happy enough.

    Worth noting that insects are more like vitamins to VFT. They still like to have a lot of direct sunlight. They also like to keep their ā€œfeetā€ wet in distilled or rain water on a platter. Make sure you use a plastic pot with drainage. Terracotta pots will leach minerals into the soil that will poison your VFT.
