They could be used like we use certain bacteria nowadays, as anti-pollutants to reduce the toxicity of certain specific environments.
It's true that they could be frightening when used for war. But the medical advances they would bring would be incredible. They could, for example, double up as an extra immune system for patients whose immune system is weakened by sickness. They could make little repairs to the gradual degradation/ wear and tear of the body (blurring eyes, weakening bones, etc) and give humans extra longevity and quality of life. The sky's the limit. But like anything, it of course has its dangerous applications.

PS. If you can, try your hand at giving some of the others a bit of feedback. If you already have, thanks, can you do some more?
