What happens when my nose sucks in dust?!


Question: Yep, when you suck in dust, the little hairs inside your nose act as a "filter" so that the dust doesn't get into your head. What's the result? A booger! That's what boogers are -- trapped dust, pollen and all sorts of other goodies that aren't supposed to get inside your body.

So, if you eat your boogers, you're really eating dirt. Gross, huh?

as bad as this is going to sound, here goes...those tiny little hairs in your nose and all that mucus(snot) help to trap any thing that may enter there. so a majority of it will be trapped and you should be blowing it out...dont be surprised if your tissue is brown...
