Most likley its no big deal. I have them occasionally in my tank also, most do they just dont see them. They are not bad as long as they do not get really dense. To get ride of them just change the water a couple of times over a weeks time. That will kill off most of them. Just make sure you keep your tank clean. Also you will want to clean your filter because they seem to build up there.
