Fun with the Venus Flytrap

In our neck of the woods (or more accurately "corner of the island") our bug problem is limited to mealy bugs, ants (these two are almost one and the same), and black flies. Well, with this plant around, we have changed our approach to fly swatting. Instead of trying to whack them into oblivion, we now try to just stun them. When successful, we then bring them to this plant - the Mighty and Noble Venus Flytrap!!!! Kept in bright shade, this plant has been doing fine (our humidity levels have been pretty high lately - I'm surprised our succulents aren't revolting...).
