Yes, they open after about 4 days if an insect has been trapped and digested. If the trap was activated and closed without catching an insect they open after a few hours.
Each trap can be activated and trap an insect about 3 times before it becomes expended and eventually dies.

Why do Venus fly traps die if you touch them too much?
It shouldn't KILL it but triggering it to close or roughhousing with it will possibly wound it Just triggering it however will cause the plant to waste energy and the trap will die sooner. most traps die after 3-5 triggers. Here are a few ways you can keep people from touching it. 1. Tell them it can kill it. 2. Tell them the rim hairs are sharp (people often ask this when they see mine) 3. Say "yes" when they ask if it hurts. 4. Tell them the acid in the trap is poisonous for human skin. 5. Keep a water bottle nearby and spray them if they don't listen.
What are all the things that a Venus Fly Trap can eat?
You don't feed a venus fly trap, they feed themselves. I used to have one too, keep it some where where there is a lot of flies, but they don't live for very long. Hope this helps! EDIT: If you keep your trap outside, it will get plenty of food itself from bugs crawling over the leaves. However, if you keep it indoors or in a greenhouse, you'll need to feed it yourself. The amount will vary on the plant, but they can go months without food. Once every couple of months at a minimum and twice a week maximum. Don't overfeed it. Also, if the traps stop closing when you trigger them, they can't close any more - it's to do with acid growth: the cells can no longer elongate. Leave these leaves on though as they photosynthesise and will turn black once the plant no longer wants them - usually after a couple of months.

How do propane mosquito traps kill the mosquitoes?
Propane mosquito traps use gases Octenol and CO2 to attract the insects. After they are drawn closer, the propane traps suck them dry. They have in-built fans which pull the mosquitoes inside. Once they are inside, they can't escape. After they get dehydrated, either they get too weak to fly or just die there. Because of this effective method of killing, the propane mosquito traps are considered the most efficient mosquito killers.
