Don't worry. The fungi is a risk factor, it isn't something that is definitely in each peanut shell. However, because you can't tell for sure it is best to avoid them. Birds with impaired immune systems are much more susceptible, as with any infection, so I am sure Merlin will be okay.
Aspergillosis is a respiratory disease which causes a variety of symptoms and can only be diagnosed by a vet. The tests are not something you would want to subject a bird to unnecessarily and I really don't think you need to worry now you have stopped giving them to him.
