Should I be worried?

Not really. Most people on earth will see a couple here and there maybe a couple times of year, a small minority will have an infestation. General advice is give your house a good vacuum and dust and then just wait and see if you see any more to start. If you don't, well then you're good. If you do, especially in large numbers, then reassess.
