What are these plastic pellets coming out of my hot tub / spa jets?

Whenever I turn on my hot tub jets, small bb-like pellets come out. They appear to be plastic and they don't dissolve. They are also not all uniform in size. The hot tub is a few years old, but I am the new owner (it came with my house). Any insight would be great!

    they are probably the bearing that the jets use, it means they need to be replaced

    the guy above is probably right...jet bearings...you probably have rotating jets that give the massage effect
