A Flytrap is a carnivorous plant found in the Primordial Caves.

Obtaining

Natural generation

Flytraps generate naturally in the Primordial Caves. Using Bone Meal or Fertilizer on a Flytrap causes the Flytrap to drop copies of itself.

Usage

Flytraps can be used for decoration. When placed in the world, fly particles will appear and swarm around the mouth of a Flytrap after some time. The Flytrap sometimes snaps shut while the flies are swarming, as if it has caught one. After spending some time closed, it will reopen, beginning the cycle again.

Crafting

Flytraps are primarily used to create Seething Stew, but they can also be turned into Red Dye.
