How do pitcher plants catch food and digest it?

1. Predation method

When it hunts, it emits a fragrance that attracts insects. When some insects are attracted, it will close the lid directly. There will be some digestive fluid in its cage, and the insects attracted will be drowned, and then the pitcher plant will digest the insects.

2. How to digest

After catching an insect, the pitcher plant usually finds it difficult to escape and will most likely be drowned by the water in the cage. It will then decompose the insect's nutrients, and finally the insect will be slowly digested. However, some bugs will escape, and some insects will live in the cage, but most bugs will be decomposed and digested.

3. Notes

There will be some juice in its cage. If you keep it at home, you should be careful not to let it come into contact with the liquid in the cage easily, and don't drink the water in the cage out of curiosity. When breeding, you should pay attention to increasing the humidity. If the breeding environment is too dry, it will be difficult for the cage to grow and it will be difficult for it to catch insects.
