Today in the Asia Rainforest we discovered the Aqua coloured trap.

The insects fly into the  pink  cup. When  it hits  the  yellow circle  the water and drowns its prey.  The plant has lots of colour to attract the insects, and then insects are attracted to the colours and then climbs up to the pink layer and then dies. If it doesn’t go to the pink cup, it will touch the ring, then it drips poison acid to kill the insects.
