Mushroom burdening your lawn?

It is a common frustration for many to have mushrooms in the lawn. This is understandable, but most mushrooms are not a direct threat to the lawn itself!

 

How do mushrooms appear in the lawn?

Removing mushrooms from the lawn

It is best to pull out or mow mushrooms. Just make sure to remove the whole mushroom to prevent any spores from spreading.


To permanently remove mushrooms, you may have to address problems with your lawn.

• If the lawn is too wet, you can aerate.
• By collecting the cut grass instead of mulching, you limit the amount of organic material in the soil.
• Dethatching also removes unnecessary organic material.
• If there is too much shade, it helps to prune trees and thin them out to have more light in the garden.
• You can also use a fungicide, but if the cause is not addressed, the mushrooms will always return.
