AnswerHi Dylan,
Congratulations! You have some Wyeomyia smithii swimming around in your pitchers. This is the Pitcher Plant mosquito larvae. They are are symbiotic with Sarracenia purpurea, and very beneficial to them. Here's some information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wyeomyia_smithii
Good Growing!
