Tips: Freeze-dried mealworms make feeding your plants much easier. You may find that feeding a Venus flytrap a dead mealworm is difficult. The following are some tips from the pros on how to do this correctly:
Rehydrate freeze-dried mealworms with a drop or two of water
A mealworm 1/3 the size of the trap is all that is needed. (If the worm is too large . the trap will die)
After placing the mealworm gently in the trap . use tongs or a skewer to gently stimulate the hairs inside.
Make sure that the trap can close and seal completely
You can use your fingers to help seal the trap [very gently] after it is closed. If it does not seal . it will open again after 24 hours without having digested the worm.
One feeding per week is often enough to keep your Venus flytrap healthy.
If you have a larger plant . such as a pitcher plant . you may need to feed more often.
