What if your venus fly trap does not shut?

Answer 1

then ur plant is a dud. u should take it back to the store sorry that's just the way it works

Answer 2

If your Venus fly trap is not closing properly, it may be a sign of insufficient light, lack of prey, or stress from overstimulation. Check the plant's environment to ensure it is getting enough light and consider feeding it live insects to trigger the trapping mechanism. Avoid triggering the traps manually, as this can exhaust the plant.
