Thanks. I didn't know that.

No I haven't tried crickets yet.

But my pet plants eat the free ants I find outside.

update from a friend who breeds flytraps,

ants are not a good thing! they are acidic and will cause the plant harm.

crickets and wigless fruit flies are great he says

each arm is good to eat only 10 meals on avg.

Although I have never noticed anything harmful to the plants. I suppose I should stop feeding the ants I find on my porch. Ants are too acidic. I have to admit it never would have crossed my mind............
