Hello Uber, try growing them under lights? keep the growing medium
moist and warm to the touch. Perhaps introduce a heat mat if they are
too cold.

That won't help him to induce proper dormancy. At this time of the
year in the northern hemisphere, a venus flytrap should be given cool
conditions.

Uber:
A venus flyrap in a pot should be reliably hardy in the 20s F. In a
minibog or large insulated pot, they are hardy to at least 10 F. If
your area is too cold, your best bet is to seal the plant in a ziploc
bag and then place it in your refrigerator for a couple of months. The
soil should be moist rather than soaking wet.
