nasal hairs and mucus, as well as your immune system!

Your respiratory system (from nostril down to lungs). When excess dust is in the air, the hair in your nostrils traps it and whatever escapes that will be dealt with by the mucous that is secreted in the nasal passage and lungs. This is expelled from the body when one coughs, sneezes or has a 'runny' nose.

Your nasal membranes in your nose have hundreds of little hairs that trap dust and germs from entering into your lungs. That's what boogers are.

nose hair is far too sparse to filter anything smaller than a pubic hair. Its the large area of nasal and bronchial mucus that entraps dust and bacteria. this then passes to the stomach where acids kill living organisms.

the mucus inside your nasal passages collect dust and germs (thats what snot is mucus + germs and dirt), any that get by are usually destroyed by the stomach acid.

when you breathe in thorugh your nose, the hairs inside help to filter out anything harmful such as dust. And when they get clogged up or covered in dust, you sneeze.

Your nose hair or the celia in your lungs. Celia are little hairs in your lungs that 'brush' debris out of them.
