poisonous mushrooms on tree roots

10 years ago

I am very worried. We have dogs and lately have been finding mushrooms (ID'd them online as possible Death Caps!) growing on tree roots. It was a huge oak tree and several years ago we had it taken down but left the root so that a young small tree could grow and it has. Now I am wondering if I should just take down the new tree plus the lilies and other stuff growing around it and also have the old roots removed? I cannot sleep worrying about the mushrooms growing on it. Plus like alot of other people we have had mushrooms (different kind) popping up in the lawn but am hoping next year this won't happen but I don't think anything is going to stop the ones growing on the tree roots. We took a pic axe and hacked away at some of it today. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks brit
