Can I compost peanut shells, or indeed do anything with them. ??

Thank you in advance

Found THIS (http://www.ehow.com/facts_5822513_can-peanut-shells-used-compost_.html)

Having read it, to be on the safe side I'd probably pour boiling water over them in a bucket before adding to the compost heap to make sure they were well soaked and as sterile as possible.
