Gnat Slayer Starter Pack – Venus Flytrap + White Sundew + 2 Digital Care Guides, Beginner Carnivorous Plant Bundle description
🌱 Beginner-Friendly "Drama-free plant energy" y 🌱🌱 Intermediate "A little picky - but worth it"
Your fungus gnats have been officially served notice. Two live hunters, two instant-download guides, 20% less than buying them separately.
What you get: 1 Venus Flytrap 'Maroon Monster' shipped in its 2" pot; 1 Drosera capensis 'Alba' shipped bare root; The Ultimate Carnivorous Plant Guide and The Ultimate Drosera Plant Guide (instant digital downloads); plus a plant care card, a QR code to our free online plant guide, and a discount code for your next order.
Quick facts
- Difficulty: beginner-friendly (the flytrap is a little picky, but worth it)
- Light: as much direct sun as you can give them
- Water: distilled, rain or RO only. Keep moist with the tray method
- Soil: peat with perlite or sand. Never potting soil or fertilizer
- Dormancy: the flytrap needs a cold winter rest and will look half-dead while it naps. The sundew grows year-round
- Pet friendly
- Eats: fungus gnats, fruit flies, small flying nuisances. These help reduce gnats; they are not a fumigator
This is the starter kit for becoming the person who casually says, "Oh, those? They eat bugs." Guides arrive instantly, so you'll know what you're doing before the box lands.
Makes an unforgettable gift for plant lovers, gamers, teachers, coworkers, or yourself. You deserve cool plants too.
Fresh out of the box: your plant just spent days in a dark box with zero snacks. Expect sulking: limp leaves, missing dew, dull color. Pot it in peat or sphagnum only (never potting soil, never fertilizer), water with distilled, rain or RO water, give it light. Dew and color return in 1–2 weeks.
Cold weather: heat packs are required November through February for the live arrival guarantee. Outside those months, if any stop on the route from California to you could drop below 50°F, add a heat pack. Plants are dramatic about frostbite, and honestly, fair.
Live arrival guarantee: if your plant shows up in rough shape, send us a photo within 48 hours of delivery. For an eligible claim we may provide a replacement when available, a refund to the original payment method, a partial refund, store credit, or care and recovery instructions when the issue is cosmetic or reversible. Heat packs are required November through February for the guarantee. Orders over $100 ship UPS or USPS with shipping insurance. Orders usually ship within a few days, Monday through Wednesday, so plants never sit in a carrier warehouse over a weekend (we may make an exception if you're close by, likely to receive it by Saturday, or the weather along the route is mild). Full shipping and refund policies are on our website. Every plant is nursery grown in California.
