There are dust particles of many different sizes and types floating in the air we breathe. In urban environments like London each cubic metre of air may hold hundreds of thousands, even millions.
Small particles usually escape our attention because we cannot see them. Any particle below 10 microns in size is said to be invisible to the human eye. (A micron is a one thousandth of a millimetre.)
Large dust particles settle out of the air very quickly because gravity has a greater pull on them.

From this diagram you can see it is only the very small particles that stay airborne for a long time. Very small particles below I micron in size will float around for weeks and even months. These are the particles that are small enough to be inhaled into our lungs when we breathe in dust-laden air.
