Default Wood filler

I inset some screws to install some door molding (base) and wish to fill

Formaldehyde--and that chemical and are not on speaking terms. Perhaps
there is a suitable caulk?

I only have four or five 3/8" holes to fill so I don't want to make a
mountain out of a molehill. But I would prefer to avoid any
"outgassing" too, or issues when the inevitable day comes that I need to
drill the substance out.

Thanks,

Just use spackle.

perfect for that. let it dry , then add more after it shrinks.

Sand and prep for paint.
