Not to mention that a majority of those Venus Flytraps at hardware stores like the Home Depot are almost always on the verge of dying. The flytrap care store not only sells flytraps that aren't dying, but healthy ones neatly potted up in nice soil. Although they can be expensive for some, the care they put into growing and packaging their plants makes up for it.
Joshua you seem to be pretty stubborn. I know you want your plant to live, and taking growing advice that goes against your personal experiences and research can feel risky, but keep in mind that most of us here have spent years learning and growing about these plants and are willing to help other people do the same. Trust some of the people here when they say that Venus Flytraps can do perfectly fine in humidity lower than 60% or without any kind of terrarium. Sure they probably could do well in ultra controlled conditions, but a lot of the time it can be detrimental and unnecessary. And with your plant being stuffed into a sealed jar, I doubt your plant will live for more than a week.
So do it your way I guess, just at least give it enough light.

Let's take a vote. These plants are dormant and have been totally frozen in their pot. Now they are in an unheated porch with probably 0 humidity at around freezing temperatures. Let's see what people think healthy looks like??
