I have used ticks off the dog to feed VFT's and Drosera. None of the plants
complained a bit. The D. capensis went crazy (bending leaves) the one time
I squished a tick with the tweezers and got several drops of blood spilled
on the leaves. I beleive Fernando has some experience feeding blood to cp also.
