Generally speaking, the traps may have attractive appearance to fool the eye, like pitcher plants, which get their name because they look like beautiful pitchers (a container like a bottle) full of nectar (花蜜).
The Asian pitcher plant, for example, has bright colors and an attractive half-closed lid.Curious insects are tempted to come close and take a sip, and then slide down the slippery (光滑的) slope to their deaths.
Hair-like growths along the pitcher walls ensure that nothing can escape and the digestive enzymes can get to work.A tiny insect can be digested in a few hours, but a fly takes a couple of days.
Some of these pitchers are large enough to hold two gallons.Meat-e ating plants only eat people in science fiction movies, but sometimes a bird or other small animals will discover that a pitcher plant isn't a good place to get a drink.
