In the ongoing fight against invasive Asian jumping worms in my yard, we have entered the next phase: They secrete something that inhibits most fungi/molds/bacteria. Now my yard is being overrun by a new type of fungus that apparently is resistant, and whose control depends on other fungi outcompeting it. And it kills trees.
Supposedly it's edible and one of the finest tasting fungi -- folks in Ukraine are out in groups gathering them -- but I'm not taking any chances. It has to be parboiled first to be nonpoisonous, so animals aren't eating them to confirm they are edible.
