Hello, I'm Jennifer, and I just bought my first VFT today. Hoping it'll help keep the bugs inside my house down and be a cool conversation starter. One day when we get our backyard finished, it'll probably end up in a water feature, but for now, it is stuck in its original container from Lowe's till I can find the right mix to replant it in a bigger, prettier pot. My S.O. made the mistake of telling me I can plant whatever I want in the backyard, and with being furloughed ATM, my plant addiction has been going into high gear.

Welcome! in my experience, Flytraps are not the best for catching pests inside. generally, what I have seen is that the sundew or the butterwort catches the most bugs inside.

Yup, my Aphrodite is well fed next to a banana, the fruit flies coat the leaves.
