Subject: Mystery Gnats being eaten...

Well, no one got back to me on what kind of gnats are infesting my
terrarium and what I should do- they're growing at a rate faster then
the plants can dispose of them and all of the Sundew traps are gorged.
So I decided to blast the terrarium with RAID. To short blasts seems to
have wiped out 90% of the virtual "cloud 'o bugs" in there!

Anyway, one interesting thing I noted: many of the gnats were stuck to
and being digested by the drosera flower stalks! I didn't know drosera
capillaris flower stalks were carnivorous! Pretty cool!

Cheers,
Paul
