Two things

I have two questions of you guys. I'm getting out of growing actives- in fact I threw out my last 2 trays yesterday in the backyard. Today though my pest control company came by and apparently let themselves into my backyard to check the termite deterrents. One of the cylinders that they buried under the ground apparently was under one of my piles of used tray substrates and they moved some aside to get at it. So my question is should I worry about them knowing what it is? I have a big stack of used tin trays in my yard also if it makes any difference but mainly the pile consisted of 2 freshly harvested trays, so they were white and shaped like a tray of lasagna and made of manure/straw and some rye, and then under those 2 were some trays that have been there for a couple weeks that are not solid white, mostly degraded.
Then the second question I have is, since it was my last grow and PE, I took about 30+ well done sterile swabs in hopes of giving them out here. What is the best way to do this? I don't really want to have to give 30 people my address to send stamps to or a return address. I was wondering if there was a single person I could send them to that would distribute them for me.

1) It depends on the pest control guy, but the type of pest guy that knows what it is would be extremely unlikely to report you. Reporting people isn't really their job and it would cause them to lose a customer. At this stage all mushrooms look the same, it could be enoki or some other edible.
2) If you find a person like that let me know, I could really use their services. If you can't find anyone, post an add for free prints and then politely ask each person who reponds (perhaps just the ones you trust / have good posts) if they can send you a book of stamps to finance your philanthropy. And/or just buy the stamps and send them out with no return address, its money well spent.

The subs didn't have any mushrooms on them. Just 2 of them had strong white mycelium on them so it would look odd. It didn't look like there was any bruising so it doesn't look like the two that were very well colonized got touched. I think I'll just go ahead and buy the stamps since it's not too expensive.
