Dust

Any fine, dry powder can be called "dust." Dust can be made up of things like soil, mineral particles (chalk, plaster, etc.) or even tiny particles of dead skin cells or clothing fibers. Dust mites are tiny organisms that live on dust! Most people who are bothered by dust are actually allergic to these tiny dust mites.
