    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Flytrap????

I found that my traps went dormant all on there own. I even upped temps and moisture levels to try to keep them active and it didn't work. I would venture to say you don't have a choice in the matter unless I myself did something wrong..........

Anyone else???

Where did you put them?

I have read they should get some sunlight but it should be 40 degrees.

I have them in the window to get sun. And I have a plastic pop over them to keep the humidity in.

Can I keep them in the window when they go dormant?

I do keep my house about 70 degrees in the winter. I live in COLD : ( Pittsburgh, pa.

thanks

I live in Lancaster, Pa so I know about your weather first hand. During the winter months I moved mine from the kitchen to the living room a few feet from the furnace. They got some heat and light from the living room window. A few went into light dormancy and few didn't. If the temps stay higher and they get natural light I have found that few will go into dormancy.

We gets some ugly weather, don't we?

My living room window is big and gets the most sun.

Can I keep them in the living room window in the winter? I keep my house about 70 - 72 in the winter.

Or should I put them on a stand in front of the living room window with the curtin open (for sun light)?

thanks : )
