He said that though, word for word. "Like sucking poison from a wound." I don't have the episode handy at the moment, but as soon as I do I'll post exactly what the Doctor said to Dickens and Rose.

EDIT: Here's the conversation, word for word from the episode.

Doctor: Brilliant, gas!
Rose: What, so we choke to death instead?
Dickens: Am I correct, Doctor? These creatures are gaseous!
Doctor: Fill the room with gas, it'll draw them out of the host! Suck them into the air like poison from a wound!

Don't lower the episode's rating because of poor writing when it was in fact explained.

Edit note 4/14: Ross requested via MSN that I re-raise his score from a 3/5 to a 4/5 now that he realized there was an explanation in the episode.
