The amount of bugs in your traps seem normal and I don’t see any Aphids in them. Do you keep the tree outside?

first off you dont have a bonsai yet but good news is you do have a small tree. those look like maybe some gnats, they should not be a problem and can be coming from moisture. your foliage may be turning brown due to keeping it indoors. your tree must be placed outside or it will just continue to decline.
