What is Trypophobia?

Fear of dust mites
Fear of holes
Fear of spikes
Fear of bacteria
Trypophobia is an aversion to the sight of irregular patterns or clusters of small holes, or bumps. Although few studies have been done on trypophobia, researchers hypothesize that it is the result of a biological revulsion that associates trypophobic shapes with danger or disease, and may therefore have an evolutionary basis.
