Biodegradable Nerf "bullets"?

Kurtis

Does anyone know if you can actually buy these anywhere, and if they are any good/do they work well?

Can't decide whether it's a good idea or not.

We had a nerf birthday party for my son a few years ago, so me...bright spark thought,,,hmmm let me write K (First initial of fore name) on the front of his Nerfs so he doesn't loose them.  Well...biro remains tacky and there were a bunch of kids running around for the rest of the day with the letter K all over them!!

Apparently they bio degrade already, according to this article https://www.conserve-energy-future.com/are-nerf-darts-biodegradable.php
Like most things on the internet, I'd need to do a lot of research before I was convinced.

That's interesting, thanks.

Ideally you want to reuse them as much as possible but outside you're almost guaranteed to loose one or two. 

If that's true they're not too bad.

We had an epic nerf war in the garden and we’re still finding rogue bullets in gutters and bushes 3 years later! Which is mad considering how brightly coloured and obvious it feels like they should be to find. No evidence they were breaking down and biodegrading after that length of time in my experience.

Hmmm...and I guess animals could maybe eat them too.

They should make them from cheesy watsit material - would make a great puff on impact.
