how would the carnivorous grassland work?

This question How often must carnivorous grassland eat?

was really interesting for me to read. However it made me wonder, how would the bone grass scientifically kill? (is there a way to really make paralytic pollen?)

Here are the criteria:

  • as long as it looks like white grass it counts(you could have snakes hidden in the ground or something)

  • it must kill via paralyzing its prey

  • the more efficient it is at "hunting" the better

  • solution must be scientifically plausible

  • no need to explain the reasons it would evolve, I don't believe in that. Makes creature design easier. :)

If anyone has any suggestions I'd love to hear them.
