Yes I’ve noticed little critters In specifically soil for carnivorous plants before :) I found a little centipede one time lol

Really just depends where the moss came from. VFT are usually kept outdoors, so they can get all kinds of bugs in their media

It’s inside but I recently got it from a store that kept it in a greenhouse that was connected to outside.
