Tea bags should NOT be added directly to a compost heap. Open them and empty the contents into the compost. The 'bag' is made from plastic net impregnated with paper. The paper rots, but the plastic does not. I stopped using the bags over 5 years ago but am still digging them up each year when turning over the soil, still with their contents trapped inside.
Egg shells should be dried, then ground as fine as possible before adding.
