Hi, no big deal but I opened a bag of pellets and noticed that some of them were slightly swollen and musty smelling. I also noticed a small hole in the bag. Apparently they got a tad wet. Should I burn these or toss em? Thanks for your help.

Just toss out the bad ones, or the whole bag if there are a lot of them. I've had a few wet/swollen pellets dumped into my stove, and it didn't seem to hurt it a bit.
Friend dropped a bag that split and spilled
all over my garage floor. I swept them up
and now use them to absorb spills in the
driveway such as gas, oil, etc.
