Is the Venus flytrap poisonous? Can I keep it at home?

1. Is it poisonous?

It is not poisonous. It relies on its own secretions to attract insects and kill them. It can catch some mosquitoes, flies and other insects, which can effectively improve the living environment and is very beautiful. After it catches the insect, it needs a few days to digest it, so its clamps will just be closed during this period. After it has finished digesting it, it will automatically open its clamps. At this time, the clamps need to be cleaned to avoid affecting the beauty of the plant.

2. Can I keep it at home?

It can be grown at home. Its leaves are very flamboyant like a sawtooth, and its color is also very bright, and its appearance is very unique. Keeping a pot of this plant at home can not only catch mosquitoes, but it can also be used as a flower for people to appreciate, which is very interesting.

1. Soil: Provide it with slightly acidic loam for planting, which should have a certain degree of moisture retention.

2. Watering: Replenish water once every 3 to 4 days, and be careful not to cause water accumulation.

3. Fertilization: You can use some compound fertilizer with low concentration and spray it with water.
