I've been feeding my neps a few drops of milk in each pitcher for a couple weeks now by way of experiment. I have done no controls, but the new pitcher the N. campanulata put out is encouraging:
The digestive juices in the campanulata pitcher are very viscous! It's almost like karo syrup or something.
I have noticed that the milk will accelerate pitcher death, but that may be true of any feeding in the species i've noticed it with. Be careful not to get milk on the pitcher itself, or it will cause problems.
