Fly-trap
A fly-trap often touches malicious designs set against you — and the small embarrassments that, caught early, ward off greater ones. The dream may ask who is laying a snare for you, whether you can see the trap before you're in it, and how a minor trouble you catch and contain might spare you a far larger one.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for fly-trap, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To see a fly-trap in a dream, is signal of malicious designing against you. To see one full of flies, denotes that small embarrassments will ward off greater ones.
