Had that much rain lately, now for the 1st time ever have a fair crop of mushrooms on the lawn.


Anyone got any good tips for getting rid permanently?
Add to a frying pan with bacon, sizzle for a few mins then enjoy (assuming they're the edible type that is).
If there Liberty cap you could end up hearing colurs and seeing sounds  ::) [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif]

baking powder looks to be a key, the alkaline must kill em.

ive always plenty in, cos I use it for the pond.


there are old roots where some of them are, so likely linked to them

And if you're feeling unwell afterwards:

Aye, it`s been a good year for `shrooms! :y

Lots of edible little-ones in my garden; we enjoy them sautéed in salted butter and then folded into softly-scrambled eggs......`add a few fresh chives: delicious!;)

I believe that if you drive the mig a couple of times on them, they [size=8]COULD [/size][/i][/b]go away permanently (fearing nearly a weight of 2 tons on their heads!)  ::) :D :-X
