I have all these venus flytraps and I want to do my science fair project on them. Can anyone help me figure out a project on their reactions to certain things, digestion, or just anything dealing with them? Thanks.

You could test how different insects affect the growth of the venus fly trap. Feed different insects and measure growth.

Put different items in each trap, put a fly in one, a piece of raw meat in another, a soft candy, a vegetable, and see which one grows the most.

The base of the plant contains digestive acid. That's just about all I know.
