I’ve got several small houseplants in my home office, and I really like having them around. I’m still pretty new to taking care of them altogether, though, and we’ve gotten dozens of tiny house gnats now. I’ve put up sticky traps and tried to use some pest control in the potted soil. But would a small venus fly trap be able to help here?
Probably not. Maybe I had a lazy flytrap growing up, but mine failed to catch a fly half of the time because they wouldn’t set off the hairs. A pitcher plant might be a better alternative if you wanted to stick with a plant based solution.
