Enclosure for Venus Fly Trap
Two months later and the Venus Fly traps are still alive. A most remarkable occurrence. My thumbs are getting greener. The Venus Fly traps are native to North Caroliner, USA and while I have not ventured to that neck of the woods I am guessing their natural habitat is damp as these plants like to be sitting in a shallow tray of water. The water absolutely has to be pure water, ie no tap water as chemicals in tap water will kill the plants. I hacked a takeaway container keeping the lid on to reduce evaporation. It works well, just not very elegant and I saw some mosquito larvae swimming in the water.
Take away container for the venus fly trap. Plans are in the pipeline to machine an enclosure out of 3mm perspex. The design intent is shown below.
