Q: How long do biodegradable BBs take to decompose?
A: Biodegradable BBs typically take several months to a few years to decompose, depending on environmental conditions such as moisture, temperature, and exposure to sunlight. Most biodegradable BBs are designed to break down faster than traditional plastic BBs but still require proper conditions to decompose efficiently.
Q: Can you get biodegradable BBs?
A: Yes, biodegradable BBs are widely available. They are manufactured specifically to break down more quickly and reduce environmental impact compared to conventional plastic BBs.
Q: What are biodegradable BBs made of?
A: Biodegradable BBs are usually made from materials such as polylactic acid (PLA), which is derived from cornstarch or other plant-based sources. These materials are designed to decompose more rapidly in the presence of moisture and microorganisms.
Q: Can BBs go through skin?
A: While airsoft BBs are designed to be non-lethal and are typically made of plastic or biodegradable materials, they can cause injury if they hit sensitive areas of the body or are fired at high velocities. They are not designed to penetrate the skin but can cause bruising or minor injuries.
Q: What is the difference between bio and non bio BBs?
A: - Biodegradable BBs: Made from materials that break down over time, reducing environmental impact. They are designed to decompose more quickly than traditional plastic BBs.
- Non-Biodegradable BBs: Made from standard plastic materials that do not decompose and can persist in the environment for a long time. They contribute to environmental pollution if not properly disposed of.
