[40K] Is Chaos at all concerned with the Tyranid threat?

The forces of Chaos have certainly been making considerable gains recently in the Warhammer 40K universe, but as I understand the Tyranid threat is still present as ever. Beyond that, there's really no telling when more tendrils of the great devourer might encroach on the galaxy from any direction. So, as the title suggests, are the Chaos gods at all worried about the implications of this? What happens if Terra is not toppled by the ruinous powers, but rather a Tyranid swarm? Surely such an outcome is undesirable to Chaos. What will sustain them when all intelligent life is consumed by the mindless Tyranids? Bearing all this in mind, could we ever see a Chaos campaign against Tyranids?

While true that a Tyranid victory would mean the Chaos gods run out of food the Nids are a surprisingly difficult enemy to fight. They can’t be possessed or corrupted so you can’t pull a space bug version of the Horus Heresy on them. Demon flesh doesn’t count as food for the bugs so they will actively avoid wasting energy fighting them. Throwing a horde of demons at them works but since the Gods can’t feed off of Nid emotions any battle turns into a net negative. The Gods have had some victories though, Ka’Bandha killed a moon full of Nids while the blood angels were being besieged by a hive fleet and Nurgle poisoned a planet so much that not even the Tyranids could out adapt it. No major campaigns that I’m aware of though.
