Yes, they do.

A "Venus Flytrap" will digest almost any animal matter that gets deposited on it. If you have a "pet" Venus Flytrap, the easiest thing to feed it is dead flies, which you can probably find on the windowsills in your house, unless your parents are ultra-vigilant housekeepers.
Ants, though, are a favorite food of another carnivorous plant, the "Sundew Plant".

They will eat any insect or worm that gets inside their snare.
A bit of raw hamburger works well, too.
And fertilize the soil

Yes. They do eat small bugs. You can get them crickets at the pet store.

Yes they do. They will digest any insect that is small enough to stay in the trap.
