Are these biodegradable?

After reading article last year, I don't believe these are biodegradable, just flushable (like it says).

I believe they claim they are biodegradable. However, many customers claim they are not, and had problems requiring plumbers who said they are not.

No, the pod is thrown away after one use, but is 97% biodegradable, unlike most.

They are not advertised as being biodegradable. If they were, it is likely that they would be ballyhoo'd as such.

They are not biodegradable or flushable, unfortunately... don't think they're compostable but I don't know much about composting...

MuttMitts are degradable, not biodegradable (distinct difference). One of their products is compostable but not biodegradable. Google the differences in the terms.

No they are not. You zip them up and dispose of them. They are a durable plastic.

All I can tell you is in the product description it states: Complies with FDA Reg. 177.1520. Do you mean bio degradable? Or do you mean can you wear them more than once? I only use "once" and for handling meat products. Hope this helps.

Biodegradable, yes. Flushable, don't know really. I simply dispose it off in the trash.

They say on the package "biodegradable", I am guessing that also means nontoxic. When in doubt, call the manufacturer and ask, Call Toll Free (800) 7AIRGUN.

I do not believe they are biodegradable. They are strong and I have never had one break when using it. Sometimes you have to compromise.

So I've threw away the original packaging which would tell me precisely what it is, but I can tell you that it feels like a cotton-paper blend. After I have used these tea bags, I disposed them in my worm bin and so whatever it is, it's biodegradable.

These meet Canadian standards, but not necessarily American. From the manufacturer's site: "While these bags meet all Canadian standards for being labelled biodegradeable, some areas of the United States have different definitions of what is a biodegradeable product. In bringing our bags to the United States, we've had to change our terminology, but our bags remain the same eco-friendly alternative to plastic bags" Bummer. At least they do offer a truly biodegradable and compostable bag, although I don't see it available on Amazon...

It is the reason I looked into and purchased them. The national brand of zip-type top bags claim their bags are biodegradable, but I felt paper bags would be more so; so, I tried them.

They are zinc plated steel, so my guess would be not for many, many years. It does not say biodegradable on package nor show a biodegradable symbol.

No...Biodegradable BB's will usually be labeled as such and cost slighlty more than normal BB's. Caution Biodegradable BB's have been known to damage higher fps airsoft guns.
