  • Another question, apologies if this sounds stupid but if you handle a poisonous mushroom do you treat your hands as toxic until you can wash them properly?

    With the kids we always tell them not to touch any fungi we see out and about but is that overkill?

  • You need to actually ingest a mushroom for it to be toxic.

    Taste is an important part of mushroom ID, you can quite happily chew on a nibble of deathcap as long as you spit it out thoroughly
