Default Plagiarism of PetPitcher Article on florafauna.com

The website florafauna.com has plagiarized my entire article on Nepenthes Propagation Guide. I wrote the article on my petpitcher.net more than 5 years back and those are MY PICTURES, MY PLANTS and MY HANDS in the illustrations.

I am announcing that I am not involved in this website neither did they asked permission to use my article. The original article can be found under the Nepenthes section here:

https://archive.petpitcher.net/nepenthes/...pitcher-plant/

This is the webpage that plagiarized my article...

http://www.florafauna.com/caresheet-...er-plants.html

The owners of the website is Jeff and Michael. I have emailed them to remove my article from their website but they have not responded.

They have on their site this statement: "FloraFauna seeks to build a community that is built on honesty, trust and service". If that were the case, they should have at least seek my permission to reproduce the article and acknowledge me or petpitcher.
