Dirty foot band

Hi
It would seem that my cockatiel got some poop stuck on the inside of her foot band and spent a good deal of time trying to pick it out. Just checking, is this at all dangerous for her? Right now it is 12:43 at night and I am not in a position to give her a bath or a deep clean (she wouldn’t let me anyway).
One more thing: her leg band is a bit big, has anyone had any problems with bands being too big?
Thanks!

Yes leg bands are a hazard. I would have it removed. It serves no actual purpose because the information on it is gobbly gook.
