Flytraps are plants that grow exclusively in Lush Caves. They generate on the floor, ready to trap any unlucky mob that passes by. They can generate alone in unsuspecting places, or generate in infested plots, forcing players to cross with caution.

Caption: The flytrap model I made is bright red to look like a Venus Flytrap but I think it might work better if it were more camouflaged so you can hide them better.
If you step on a flytrap, it will snap shut, preventing you from moving or jumping. This can make the Lush Caves somewhat dangerous, because if you are running from an enemy, you might accidentally get stuck if you aren't careful.
Disarming a flytrap is simple, just hit its pressure sensor until it lets you go. Once you get efficient at it, they won't be so deadly, only slow you down a bit. While you are trapped, your mining speed will be really slow, so you could try to mine yourself out but its not the best way.
You can shear them like any other plant. Flytraps can emit redstone signals, so you can create your own traps and redstone contraptions with them. If a flytrap traps a mob, they can still attack you but they can't escape on their own, so flytraps can be used to capture and hold mobs.
Optional:
Flytraps deal damage and inflict Poison every 10 seconds so anything caught will eventually die. Players can be digested too if they are slow to escape. Pets that get trapped can safely teleport back to you because I think it'd upset players if it killed their pets.
