I bought a pitcher plant on sale. It is outside and getting plenty of mosquitoes now but in the winter it will be inside. How do I feed it? Would worms we buy for the wrens be okay? Thanks. Butterfly

Hi!
I'm that friend of ms. cindy's ^.^

Whatcha can do with ur pitchers is feed em crickets. They only require about 1-2 large sized bugz per month. large sized would be like a large house fly, small horse fly, large crickets bought at a petshop, and stuff like that ^.^

Another alternative *which i personally don't trust* would be to use 1/4 deluted fertalizer. Now, if you do this, DON'T apply it to the roots. Don't even let it touch the roots >.< instead, mist the leaves, and put some in the pitchers. Do that about as much as you would normally feed it bugs. I recommend feeding crickets using tweezers. If they're too hard to catch with the tweezers, put em in the freezer for about 10 seconds and they'll slow right down ^.^
