Default fly eating plants

We didn't get any sundews but I'd like to and would like to put them in all
the houses as part of the bio control but Ray points out that they might
*catch* the bio controls. ;-))

They catch flying things (1). I don't think they'd get the red spider
controls, not unless you had a 'bridge' across the bog. Ad probably not
even then. They're more use at getting the occasional housefly than at
anything which might go for your plants. And they're *useless* against
slugs ;-)

(1) They don't seem to catch whitefly - it's butterworts that are good
at whitefly.
