Question
I seen a a picture on cobra plant photo gallery of a slug crawling into a Judith Hindle pitcher if the slug sell in and wasn't able to get out would that kill the plant, also what about other things like small frogs and mice or a small lizard. If those things crawled into the plant and could not get out would the plant die

Answer
Hi Ricky,

It takes a lot more than a captured critter to kill a carnivorous plants.  The most common reason why carnivorous plants die is lack of sunlight.  It's a misconception that over feeding will kill a plant.  This is simply not true.  If a critter is too large for a pitcher, it will rot in the pitcher and the pitcher will die off.  However, the plant itself will continue to grow.

For more information about what it takes to grow carnivorous plants, read our care sheets on our website:

Good growing!
