Fools Conecap Mushrooms

It would appear I have Fools Conecap Mushrooms growing in my raised bed.
From what I read they are deadly poisonous.

The question is, what do I do about it?

Nothing? Do you have young kids who might eat them? If so then I would check and dispose of them before you let the kids out. Otherwise, just leave them. The toadstool/ mushroom bit is just the equivalent of a flower, so the main fungus will be all through the soil in the bed.

Fool’s Conecap mushrooms are toxic and not suitable for consumption, unlike the delicious chestnut mushrooms. If you're curious about cultivation, learning how to grow chestnut mushrooms can lead to a rewarding harvest. Focus on safe, edible varieties like chestnuts to enjoy rich flavors and avoid the dangers of wild fungi.
