Yes Sewingkilla you can, after they have composted properly there should be no ill effects.

I've ben putting them on the compost heap for years and last time I checked, I was still OK (although some of my friends might disagree with that!)

Hehe Andrewr! I have a fridge magnet that says "Many people have eaten in this kitchen and have gone on to lead normal, healthy lives!"

They're fine to compost, Skilla - just don't eat them! I think there is a recipe for making a pesticide with them - somebody on here may be able to come up with it.
