I can’t see the image but from what you said in the title it’s bad for your plants.

This is what I see:

Composition: Mixture of slightly decomposed raised sphagnum, (H2-H4/H3-H5) with well-balanced main and micronutrients.

This means it has added fertilizers and those will kill flytraps.

Also, as you noted:

That's the problem there. That will definitely kill a flytrap.

How long have your flytraps been in this peat moss?
Do any of them have petioles that are looking yellow?
A picture of your plants would help with a diagnosis.
