FlytrapCare Carnivorous Plant Forums

My grandma recently told me that there are a lot of bugs in pakistan. So, am i able to bring my flytrap to pakistan in an airplane?

Hi,

The only way to bring any plants or plant material to most countries (including Pakistan: http://mnfsr.gov.pk/mnfsr/userfiles1/fi ... 0Final.pdf (it has instructions)), you need a phytosanitary certificate and/or an import permit, both of which are expensive and inconvenient. To answer your question, you cannot legally bring a Vft into a plane to Pakistan unless you have the requirements and papers. If you bring them illegally, you risk getting a fine and the plant confiscated (I wouldn't risk it). Also you can feed your VFT by getting dehydrated blood worms, re-hydrating them and feeding your plant. You need to trigger your plant and continuously press them. There's more information on the flytrap care website.

can you please tell me why my plant is not opening and closing on insects i know its exhausted or maybe other than exhausted its still green but wont snap shut
help me on how to make then not exhausted
