Probably fine: Remember once you eat something, it's exposed to very harsh conditions in your stomach. It's unlikely that anything concerning that you ate would survive. You should also realize that in other countries insects and their eggs provide a staple of food(yikes!), so it isn't necessarily unsafe to eat ... though it may not be very palatable to people here!
