2nd Request

A man has this mold (see attached picture) that looks like vomit growing in his yard. He has small neighbor kids that play in his yard and he is worried about them. He has been digging it out all summer but it comes back in about a week. How can he get rid of it for good. It is mostly by a tree but is spreading outward and they live on a lake. He can email me the picture later today if it would help to have a better picture I could forward it to you.

There is no chemical to control a fungus as far as I know. A fungus usually feeds on some type of decaying material. So unless you get rid of that it will continue to pop up. A fungus also likes shady high moisture conditions. Not sure if you can do anything about that. Jackie Jackie<personal data hidden>
