I have lots of mushrooms under one tree but not another, no difference in amount applied. I applied corn gluten meal awhile back and don't know if that is causing this. I also don't understand why there are so many under one tree and not another. Anyone know?
Don't worry. I'm not eating the mushroom, just smashing them.

It is just part of the decomposition process when we have extended wet weather. They won't hurt anything in your yard. They will dry up and go away once the weather dries up. They actually add nutrients back to the soil, so you can leave them, mow them (although I don't recommend mowing when it is wet), or knock them over with your foot if you don't like looking at them. I have them in my backyard too and I just knock them over when I walk across the lawn.

We had a bunch crop up in one of the flower beds and I thought they were a cute addition.

Some can be somewhat colorful. There were some in my lawn that were orange, yellow, cream and brown. They eventually faded to all brown, but were very interesting.
