Good idea is to de-burr the spoke holes in the rim before hand.
if you are referring to little trails of sealant migrating towards spoke holes then I know what you mean. I’ve been experimenting with using a heat gun and a plastic tire lever as aids in smoothing out every last air bubble when installing new tape. It seems that on my 2 road tubeless bikes, I will have great air retention for a while and with no apparent reason that great air retention will become less than stellar. When installing a new tire if I see any questionable spots on the tape I retape.
