Nothing they only open and clise a limited number of times then die off. Best to do nothing

No worries about the trap closing! It’ll open back up once it’s ready :) or die off if it was its last time (that’s okay too more babies will come in). Good that there’s no more aphids that you can see but keep a close eye and treat it if you’re worried!
