    They are actually a sign of good, fertile, organic soil. They will help to break down the debris and feed your lawn. If you have concerns with children or pets, you could treat with a fungicide, or keep and eye on everyone so they don't eat them and allow nature to do her thing.

      Improve drainage, cutback tree overhang to allow more light and air into the space. Or embrace the 'shrooms', Mother Nature's world of elves and leprechauns.
