We use the term 'bugs' but that tends to have the connotation that they are all bad and cause illness. We say, for example, a person has a 'bug' when they are not well. This is not true of course. Many micro-organisms are not harmful and can be beneficial to humans. Also, 'bugs' usually means bacteria and viruses. This excludes other unicellular organisms such as yeasts and algae.

Not sure there is one I'm afraid.
If you call them bacteria as one person suggested you miss out all the viruses, protozoa, and microscopic fungi.
If you call them germs or bugs as another person suggested you miss out all the non-pathogenic (non-disease causing) organisms.
If you call them uni-cellular (or single celled) organisms as the last person suggested you miss out the micro-organisms which are actually multicellular.
You can't even call them small animals because most of them actually aren't animals (only organisms in the kingdom animalia are animals)
With this in mind I would suggest microbes?
