Hi, so I accidentally fed my venus fly trap a woodlouse forgetting they’re not supposed to eat during dormancy :cry: they seemed to take it and snap it shut and everything but will it be okay considering their in dormancy? Thanks.

They can eat during dormancy. It shouldn’t be a problem at all. If the trap closed that means it has the ability to digest they prey.
