Today a bug made a hole when trapped inside a VFT trap and escaped!

What should I do about the hole? The whole isnt big, but neither is the trap. I just dont know what to do. Help please!

Thanks in advance for your advice.
 
Duct tape, of course!

I would leave the trap alone until such time as it turns black.

Jim, Sounds like you watch Red-Green.

VTPTFATHAVFT, Like Jim said leave the trap alone 'till it turns black. The hole won't harm the plant although the trap may die sooner and won't be able to hold any bugs it may catch.
 
Thanks guys

I have a question, when it does turn black, do I just cut of the trap or the whole leaf and everythin
 
Anything green is still doing the photosynthesis thing and is still useful. Anything black is dead and can mold.
 
I would take a cutting sence the trap is going to die anyways. Then maby it will propigate itself.
 
I haven't tried it yet, but perhaps rooting hormone would help in your endeavor? Just noticed that the old smileys are back.
