What is a fly eating plant called?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The Fly eating plant is known as a venus Flytrap note the name "Fly" I hope this helped you. Kristina :~) ---------------- The Venus Flytrap is endangered, and therefore might be hard for you to find. If you are looking for a common fly-eating houseplant, its called the Pitcher Plant. I have a North American Pitcher that is quite effective. It has long tube-like stems and a 'lid' on top. It draws the flies in, and the lid closes on them. Then the tube slowly (very slowly) draws it downward to the base. Lucien.
