How to Kill Mushrooms Naturally
- 1). Pick the mushrooms growing off organic substrate such as rocks, mulch and bark. Remove the organic substrate that the mushroom grew from and discard it.
- 2). Closely inspect the substrate around the affected substrate and remove any substrate that has what looks like a white mold growing on it. This is mycelia and will eventually sprout a mushroom.
- 3). Locate areas where mushrooms grow from the grass. Cut a squared or circle patch of sod around the mushroom with a spade shovel. Cut down 2 to 3 inches deep. If the area is large, cut the sod into a grid and remove one section at a time until you remove all the ground that has mushrooms growing on it.
- 4). Slide the spade shovel under the sod to cut the grass seed roots and then lift the sod up with the shovel to remove it. Take care not to place the sod onto grass that will remain in the yard. Place the sod in a wheelbarrow and then discard the sod in a place away from your lawn.
- 5). Fill the vacant area in your yard with topsoil. Tamp the topsoil down with a metal tamper and then add more topsoil until the new ground is level.
- 6). Plant grass seed in the topsoil and water according to the direction on the grass seed packaging.
