Each pillow was found to contain a substantial fungal load

Eeeeewwwww - I knew that our pillows were full of dust mites but never knew about the fungus
Mites and fungus - and they lived happy ever after.

"We know that pillows are inhabited by the house dust mite which eats fungi, and one theory is that the fungi are in turn using the house dust mites' feces as a major source of nitrogen and nutrition (along with human skin scales). There could therefore be a 'miniature ecosystem' at work inside our pillows."
