Holes in leaves

I recently went to Loew's and found a previously bloomed Path for half price. I was told that they have to keep netting over their orchids due to wild birds flying in and targeting them as salad. When I bought it I did not see any damage, but there actually is quite a bit. Every leaf has at least two holes in it. I was wondering if I should be treating them with something just to make sure that the birds didn't leave anything that might spread. Any advice would be helpful. This is my first Paph and it's got me a little intimidated as to its care any way.
