Update my Venus flytrap

The Venus flytrap has stayed in my home for almost a week and I am glad that it's still alive I think I really take good care of it. Every morning I take it to the balcony and then at night I bring it inside and use a plant light to give it extra "sunlight" Today when I noticed it and I found there was a very little bug inside the leave and you could see it from the arrow. That's quite interesting.

No flies, but just a very tiny flying bug.

Actually there are no more flying bugs in my side. So hopefully this plant will not be "hungry"

@youless Does the plant really eat up those bugs?

@allknowing I don't know, but be sure the bugs will die inside and they will be gone after a few weeks?

I had a Venus Flytrap about 45 years ago. I loved it when I caught a fly. I hate those things.

That's a long time ago. Yours might be bigger than mine.

@youless .......If it was still alive. In the apartment I had then I had a big front room window. I had it filled with plants. That was back in the 70s.

Your venus fly trap looks like it's enjoying the love you're providing (along with the bug )

If the bug starts eating your plant, you may need to dispose of it (the bug, not the plant). Edit: Duh! I just realised it (the plant) is supposed to be eating the bugs! I'm really thick sometimes.
