I wonder if anyone has any ideas how I can get rid of HUNDREDS of toadstools, I find in my garden nearly every morning? I assume them to be poisonous as they a various colours,shapes and sizes,as I have two dogs I am afraid they may try to eat them.I dig up as many as I can each day, but they are back again the next day.Please can anyone help>

Here is my suggestion based on nothing except common sense.

Mushrooms are a fungus, therefore if you go to the Ilach (english pronunciation) you will be able to buy an antifungicidal spray. This will not hurt anything which is not a fungus, so should kill the toadstools pretty damn quickly.

Tell the man in the store what you want it for. He will have something for you. Tell him that you have dogs so has to be non-toxic to them.

Cannot think of anything else without poisoning the soil.

Good luck with it.

oooh! perhaps they were mushrooms and were picked!

Did you think to get a local to have a look at them? They just might have been mushrooms. I would hate to think I advised you to kill them if they were!
