It depends on the type, container size etc of the Venus Flytrap. The biggest I have seen was as big as a 13 year old's fist.

Can frogs eat a fly off a fly trap?
The fly is caught between the two leafs of a Venus Flytrap. The leafs do not open until the fly is digested and only the undigested remains are left. I doubt if there's a Venus Flytrap big enough to catch a large frog, but, I also do not believe a frog could eat a fly caught by a Venus fly trap.
What is the differences between venus flytrap and monkey cup?
A Venus flytrap is like a clam. It opens up to allow small insects to crawl inside and when they touch hair cells in the bottom it very quickly clams shut trapping the insect. A monkey cup is like a pitcher plant -- a pitfall trap. It's a tall cylindrical cup. Insects crawl into the cup but cannot hold onto the sides and fall to the bottom where they drown in a liquid. There are very large monkey cups that can trap a mouse.
What can a Venus Flytrap be used for?
Venus Flytraps are important to life because they shallow deadly insects and keeps bugs away from us. Without the Venus Flytraps, thousands and thousands of deadly insects, such as mosquitoes which bring us malaria and locusts, bees etc would live to exist beside us on Earth. More importantly, Venus Flytraps are part of the Ecosystem and help deduce CO2 through respiration. They're just normal plants at the end of the day.
What does a Venus flytrap eat but flies?
Birds and possibly small rodents eat the Venus Flytrap.
What is the size of the Venus Flytrap?
It depends. Most don't grow very large at all. Usually only 5 inches in diameter. And that is only the ENTIRE plant. To find out more about them, click on the related link below for a website that shows how to care for Venus Flytraps.
What does a Venus-flytrap eat?
Flies and other flying insects supplement its nutrition from the soil on which it lives. Sometimes if there is a large Venus Flytrap it will eat a small frog or toad.The Venus Flytrap lives on soils that are poor in nutrients, and in particular nitrogen compounds, such as nitrates, that the roots can absorb. The insect "diet" provides additional nitrogen, enabling the plant to grow in places where it might not otherwise survive.

It will eat anything that fits inside it.It's in the name - flies!You could feed a Venus Flytrap flies, water and hamburger meat.You can feed Venus fly traps quite a lot of things, flies (obviously, that's why it is called what it is), Spiders and many other things, such as small bits of raw hamburger.You can put it by a window eg in your bathroom. I have found that it loves it there because it has fresh, live flies from the window! It's also a good idea to have a little bowl with about 2-4 mm of water in it. (Not tap water)You can also feed it by putting the fly/spider into the trap or you can let it catch the food all by itself. You shouldn't make it close with nothing in it very often, or it will get tired and die. So if you don't do that, your Venus fly trap will live a long time! Good luck!You can feed them any bug, but it will also eat small (live) frogs or toads.small flys buy not to small or not to big because they can egscap easly.

Why does the Venus Flytrap trap flies?
The Venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula) attracts insects onto its paired multicolor leaves, which then snap shut, trapping the insect in a "cage" between them.Flies and insects are attracted to the Venus Flytrap's bright colours and scent. There are stiff "spikes" along the edges of the plant's leaves, which combine to form a barred cage when they rapidly fold together. This is triggered by tiny hairs in its trap: when a fly triggers two hairs in quick succession, the trap closes almost instantaneously. Unable to escape, the fly is slowly digested by enzymes in the leaves.Trigger MechanismThe cells along the top of the hinge (along the inside of the trap) can quickly 'deflate' when they receive the signal from any 2 of the 6 trigger hairs on the inside surface. The trigger hairs send a signal when they are bent over by any mechanical pressure such as a bug brushing against them. The mechanism for 'deflating' is rapid loss of turgor pressure by the opening of ion channels in the cell membrane of those cells on the top surface of the hinge allowing water to rush out.It is likely that 2 hairs need to be bent to prevent false alarms from rain drops hitting the hairs. The margins of the traps are guarded by bristles that serve 2 functions: they keep bugs that are too big from entering the trap and they prevent escape of bugs that have triggered the trap during the brief period that it takes for the trap to close.After the trap closes, continued struggling stimulates cell growth that causes the trap to close tighter--sometimes until the guard bristles point outward. This forms a very tight seal and preserves moisture and enzymes that digest the bug. The plant senses both mechanically and chemically if it has a living or nonliving thing in its trap. If it caught something worth eating, it will create an airtight seal, suffocate or drown the bug, and start digesting it. The plant absorbs the nitrogen compounds from the bug to make up for the nitrogen-poor bog soil where it grows.

How big does a Venus Flytrap get?
Answer 1:A Venus Flytrap will reach a maximum size of about 13 cm (5 inches) in diameter if you treat it well, and a single leaf trap will get to be 3 centimeters.Answer 2:Not very big. I had one and it didn't get very big at all but then it died.big enough ta eatyaSome grow up to 10 feet wide. Normal ones only grow up to 5 inches.That's Pretty Big For A Plant!!
