They have been found to be consistent with a substance that could be produced by the human body. It has been stated that Morgellons fibers cannot be manmade and are also not made by plants. This is a vague description but it reflects almost everything that is known right now about Morgellons fibers.
In January 2007, Morgellons fibers were found to contain cellulose, the primary component of plants. Cellulose is also used in the makeup of cotton and linen, as well as cellophane. Additionally, patients reporting Morgellons fibers have also tested positively for Agrobacterium, and organism that infects plants and is known to produce cellulose fibers primarily at the infection site. This evidence has been helpful in shedding some light on the mystery of Morgellons fibers but has still not been conclusive.
Rather than a bacterial infection, some scientists and physicians have chosen to believe that the Morgellons fibers may be a byproduct of a more complex fungal condition. Morgellons fibers resemble hyphae, which are the primary mode of growth in fungi. This has lead many to the conclusion that Morgellons fibers are part of fungal growth or a possible parasite that is new to the medical and scientific community.
Though Morgellons fibers remain an enigma, one thing is certain for most sufferers: they are miserable and highly disturbing. Whether they are environmental, biological, imaginary or not, Morgellons fibers are the most perplexing factor on the list of symptoms. If not for these fibers, Morgellons would most likely be attributed to other conditions that are commonly known. However, like a lost puzzle piece, Morgellons fibers continue to inhibit a final conclusion on this mysterious condition.
this was the best I could find as far as explaining.
noone knows what the fibers are...they don't match anything we've ever seen before.

sorry if this appears to sound a bit harsh and isnt aimed at anyone in particular esp:you godsgrace, but im increasingly frustrated at the fact that i do know what these fibers are, but havent had any luck with anyone of credit to talk to about it, i wanted to give this information over straight away to help everyone who has suffered from this, i know you guiys have no reason to believe me as ive not told you what they are, but you have to understand my position, i`m near enough on the street, my wife has left me and i struggle to eat and survive if i venture outside i`m a walking beacon for new morgs and end up with migrains, so i cant go anywhere so i HAVE to get at least something out of this horror movie for my life to progress, every treatment method i`ve put in the forums i have therorised first and tried on myself, yes ok when i thourght these were some kind of insect infestation, i used caustic chemicals etc on my skin, but realised i wasnt dealing with something so simple, had a cpl of theories from fungus to mites, and was proved wrong each time, what i`m moaning about is the unwillingness of people to help...and i mean in general, and yes i do understand that you guys have been let down before, and each case has some symptoms in common while others remain alien to each other, i thourght i`d proved pretty much that i knew what i was talking about with different descriptions of treatment methods etc and the crazy questions ive asked with regards to some of the strangest of symptoms, i have honestly seen this in all it`s shape shifting glory attacking myself and my wife, i know it`s not you guys fault that no o0ne will reply but seems the only people out of the growing number of sufferers is pat ,carla,jo and kritts, please dont take this the wrong way, it`s almost as if the end of the mystery/war is in sight that many of you who have had these bloody thingsas companions for years and would be of most help, seem to not want to because you`ve worked so hard and learnt so much trying to fights these,....what i`m saying peeps is i need help i really dont know who to contact at all, every email or message remains unanswered, i just dont want to have to write a feckin book which in a years time most of you will read and say well feck me, it`s not so much a theory now as every test i try and every concievable situation i test in my head and can explain, please help peeps, theres no point me even keeping my machone if no one will even be willing to look at it,
