Reply to comment by glisteningdinkus in TIL about Demodex, or eyelash mites. They are too small to see with the naked eye, and feed off of the dead skin cells of humans. Almost every adult human alive has an eyelash mite population living on their face. by lonewolf9378

Think of them as cleaners. Without those mites your eyelashes would be covered in dead eyelid/brow skin.
