They seem to do the job well.
It seems to be doing my plant good. It saves me looking for dead insects etc. I used to feed the plant on meal worms. They were ok, but I think these tiny cubes seem to be better.

Do not buy this product
It says for Venus fly trap food. It made my traps turn brown. When I told the company this. They said it isn't for all carnivorous plants, and as I had opened it and used it I can't have a refund. Do not buy this product.

Seems great for the plant!
My Venus fly trap seems to love it lol 😂 I will say since iv been feeding her this food she looks so much healthier. I love saving Walmart plants and we know how hard that can be. I’d definitely recommend this food.

The best carnivorous plant food outside of bugs
This stuff is amazing. They’re like little gelatin cube made out of the same stuff the plants eat when consuming bugs. I use mine on a drosera Capillaris by cutting a cube piece off that’s just smaller than the size of a leaf. The plant consumes it within 24-48 hours with usually nothing left behind. Within a few days the plant is bursting with new growth and looks even healthier. Cannot recommend enough

I’m an amateur Venus Flytrap fan
My darling needed to have a little extra help besides the occasional gnat or flying bug so I decided to try this one recommended by a few online experts. So far I’m enjoying my new plants. I have an interesting menagerie of plants and my new found interest are the carnivorous kind. We shall see how this works here in FL did not know they need a dormant period but will see how we fair.

Okay for flytraps, AVOID for pitcher plants!
Works pretty well for feeding my flytrap - they are able to digest the food in about a day. They do leave an unsightly residue behind. However I would recommend NOT using this for pitchers plants such as nepenthes. I fed two large pitchers and the food ended up getting moldy and the pitchers are now dying back. Next time I will get mealworms or another option to feed my carnivorous plants.
