We went to a new location at the weekend - there were thousands of Fly Agarics, along with quite a few hedgehogs, chanterelles and a couple of Ceps and Orange Birch Boletes

If you meant dont eat them then that goes without saying.

Anyway, has anyone tried using them for fly control yet?

Here's a different view of one we found last week, the cap was at least 20cm across and and the photo shows the ring on the stem and the gills very clearly.
