Rafflesia plants do not eat insects. They attract flies with their rotten smell in order to pollinate their flowers.
They are, however, parasites. They live off a particular vine in the rain forest. Having no leaves, stems or roots, they get all their water and nutrients from their host.

No. Rafflesia is pollinated by insects. They are attracted to the plant by its odour of rotting meat.
Praying mantis ,beekiller and ladybird feed on other insects.
Rafflesia, known for its large and foul-smelling flowers, primarily attracts pollinators rather than having specific predators. However, its flowers can be affected by herbivores such as insects that feed on its tissues or larvae that may inhabit the flower. Additionally, scavengers might be attracted to the decaying flowers, which can impact the plant's reproductive success. Overall, the main threats to rafflesia come from habitat loss and environmental changes rather than direct predation.
They catch insects, some insects feed on plants so the insects that feed on plants will increase. I hope that, that will help. =D

The huge flower of the parasitic Rafflesia arnoldii attracts flies and other insects to pollinate it by having a reddish-brown color and stinking like rotting meat. That is why it is called the 'corpse flower'. The flower has a diameter of 3 ft (1 meter) and weighs up to 24 pounds (11 kilograms).
