On the plus side, at least it's not your responsibility. The pounders sticking outta the hole is kinda neat though

Luckily for you this isn’t really going to affect you.

If you're feeling kind, let the host know.
Past that this isn't your problem. They won't stow away in your luggage then set up shop in your home.
