I let him go as not much of him in the trap- just his head. He was pulling like crazy but his head was'nt going anywhere.

OUCH funny pic, you can really see the leverage he's attempting to implement, poor little sucker...

I recently had a fly die over the course of 2 days in a S.leucophylla I got last week- the pitchers were so long and skinny that the fly only fell in far enough to be trapped, not enough to get digested, so every 30 seconds or so he buzzed like crazy.. it got a bit annoying but I'm sure the fly liked it a lot less

A big yellow jacket flew inside my leukophylla and bit his way out so only his head was poking out. I didn't want my family to see it so I had to cut the head off which wasn't particularly fun.
