One on cuttings and pullings would be good. The only video i've seen on this gives bad advice.

Nice Video. So can this technique be use on any freshly killed insects?

yup just keep in mind if you feed a trap a insect that is as big as the trap you increase the chance that the trap might die back but it doesnt affect the plant in a bad way

Nice video, but you don't have to squeeze the trap as much.
