Are lady bugs in the curing room an issue?

I already took care of most of my harvest but I still have trimmed buds hanging (need a couple days). I walked into the drying room to see 30+ ladybugs swarming the buds and stems. I know they are beneficial during the growing period to combat aphids and such but is there any threat to the buds during the curing process?

I suspect they are just hunting for food and it will be fine but I'm a newbie.

Thanks

They’re after steak, not salad.

I assumed as much. But I also don't want them shitting and pissing on my buds! If that's a thing. Want to keep the product as pure as possible. Wasn't sure if that would be an issue or a possiblity.

Well heres the thing. Less of a worry about the lady bug shit and more of a worry of what is drawing them into your drying area.

Aphids suck. And smoking them isn't exactly what we want either.

just put them in the garden near aphids if possible, check your bud for aphids under the leaves and on the stems if its fresh

Yeah they like to hide in the little nooks between bud/branch also. God do they suck. So hard to get rid of.
