Hi, is there an English word for the stuffs you blow off after you use an eraser?  The closest thing i came up is eraser residue or eraser scum, but they don't sound right...

There isn't a special word, no. I think eraser dust could be a good option.

 thank you!  i think the kids understand eraser dust better than residue or scum (i don't like scum).  Well, i asked b/c the kids erase a lot and they just blow that stuffs all over the place...  Eraser dust, almost magical, i like it :)
