You really don't have nose cilia; you have nasal hairs that act as a trap for things you breathe in.If anything gets past them, they will then meet the cilia. Their job is to move the mucus that your tract makes. The mucous gets embedded with these particles. The cilia then move the mucus and particles up and out.You swallow these and your stomach acids destroy all of it. The cilia are like a janitor who always sweeps up the messes.
