Question about poopy mushrooms

I read the following in a mushroom book:
When hunting for mushrooms do not eat them raw, especially the ones growing in manured lands. They are often rife with maggots, small insects, and fecal bacteria.
so do all conscientious shroom hunters cook their "wild" shrooms before consuming them?!!

Well, I'm pretty sure you'd be able to tell if it was infested with maggots or insects. You just have to look at it. As for the shit being on them; it's not like a cow/horse shits and a mushroom pops out. The poo has to be wethered and have all the ammonia washed away etc... If your scared about it, just wash them off. We all consume more shit than you would think. So, no. We don't all cook them before we eat them. A lot of mushroom books were written a while ago, and there have been great strides in knowledge about mushrooms fairly recently. What year was your book published?

It's good advice too. Lots of people get sick from E coli after eating field picked mushrooms off manure. Dry first, or boil into tea to be safe. RR

As for the bugs a buddy of mine takes the morels he finds and soaks in a brine solution..you can watch all the little bugs come out and float to the surface.
I'm guessing the same technique can be used with actives?
