    ok, but i want to get rid off it.. what do i do?

    Can't you just brush it off?-there are always a lot of fungi about this time of year-most just disappear on their own accord

    ok, I did cut it off with lown mower, but has come back and expanding faster. so i am worried. It was never there before.

    That is the nature of fungi-it will not be a permanent feature but may reappear in 12 months time

    thanks for that, i was going through few posts, i think it is slime mold. Do you know how to get rid of it?

  • sotongeoffsotongeoff Posts: 9,802

    Fungi feed on decaying matter-find that and you are half way there-but again without a picture it is hard to say

    This might help-if it is slime mould
