ant

Ok, based on reading a past thread on feeding CP's, I just tried the stunned ant method. It worked great! Trying to catch live ants is tough as they run all over the place. Instead i collected as many live ants as i could using a stick and a glass jar with lid. I then put it in the freezer for...

I received two baby Sangs today from Sarracenia Northwest. (GREAT guys by the way! Plants are packed EXCELLENTLY!) The babes are only about 3 inches in diameter, but are plentiful of juv pitchers. Anyway, almost immediately after settling in to it's new home, one of the babes made a meal of a...

Im fairly sure this is a Carpenter ant queen. Some of you are like OMG youre insain! A Carpenter ant? What if she gets out? Well If I cant figure out how to care for her (SEARCHING MY MIND OUT) I will go to the forest and let her go... Easy as that. Oh and by the way shes HUGE! Those are...

I bought two pots of vfts from a garden center alittle while back and it looks like theres ALOT of plants in each pot. It's wall to wall little flytraps. I asume there not long out of tc. I want to repot and with there being probly 50-100 plants in each pot I was wondering if I could try to pull...

Hey, I have a sort of strange question. How do you all feel about flytraps catching too many insects? I am growing them outside in pots for the first time and almost all the traps are shut from catching a pillbug there, an ant here, etc. Everyone else's pictures have flytraps with numerous...

By an army of red fire ants! I've been in Florida for the past 6 weeks and I was walking my friends dog and stepped on an ant hill. I didn't notice and just stood there for about a minute. Next thing I know, I feel this horrible burning feeling on my foot. I look down and there are about 100 red...

Larry from http://insectivorous.com and I realized we live extremely close to each other so we decided to meet up and visit the Cal State Fullerton greenhouse to check out Sarracenias, Droseras, Pinguiculas, Cephaloti, Nepenthes, etc!!! (and of course, the best: venus fly traps). Most of the...

Here is my Admirilis sucking the life out of this ant. Hope you enjoy. Jeff

*Sigh* I brought my Boston ferns in for the winter about a month ago. Couldn't leave them out in the cold all winter. Yesterday I cleaned all the CP trays, and the nep tank out. What did I find? A bumper crop of little black insects, some winged, others not, covering my Drosera and trying to...

One of my N. x edinensis' pitchers have caught so much ants that it has exceeded the water line. There's so much ants that any new ant that enters the trap is just walking over dead ant corpses. Is it ok to add some water or will the pitcher produce water or fluid or whatever that thing is. The...

Terro ant killer is the best ant killer. All I did is place a few drops in the ant path and in a day or two they will be gone. This stuff is like gold. Don’t get me wrong my nepenthes love having all the ants in their pitchers. But I hate ants. I flushed the Queen out and feed her to my D...
