I wouldn't be surprised if it's not uncommon for people to get sick from not properly cleaning wild mushrooms. Since you don't cook psilocybes before consuming, there are lots of things in the environment that could give you gastrointestinal problems. One in particular off the top of my head would be Giardiasis.



This is one of the reasons I always make tea instead of eating raw mushrooms.I'm sure a quick boil should kill most if not all bacteria and any other unwanted things like parasite eggs that some slugs and snails can leave behind.




Are there any particulars regarding dung loving mushrooms? I remember as a child always
being told to stay well clear of horse dung for the risk of Tetanus. Wondering if this would
apply to cinctulus hunters...

I've done my share of picking cinctulus from horse dung and have never been sick.Not sure about the Tetanus risk,never heard about it.:shrug:
I used to eat them fresh after washing but eating live maggots was not a pleasant experience so after learning drying the mushrooms the maggots would crawl out and die,I no longer eat them fresh and always make tea.

Well, in Norway at least, one gets a mild vaccine against it as newborn, then a stronger
one at the age of 13 ot 14, can't remember. It is probably not a huge health problem
anymore, but apparently was in pre-auto ages, with all those horses horsing about
the streets and whatnot.

Yep Tetanus vaccines are common everywhere now thankfully, but tetanus needs punctured skin to infect us and thrives mostly in anaerobic environments. Heroin users are the most at risk for contracting the disease.

After washing P.allenii off in a small tub of water and noticing long swimming/crawling parasites in the left over spore slurry, I decided fresh specimens will no longer be consumed by me.  I'm ok with the occasional fly and beettle larvae but those long skinny tape worm looking guys I can't stomach.

The 2012 ovoid season, my finds were always loaded with maggots. They were so bad if I didn't clean and dry them immediately, within a couple hours the mushrooms would be so riddled with tunnels they would disintegrate when you picked them up. The bottom of my dessicator was littered with little dried up worms.

I didn't see a single one this past season.

Sorry for the long absence,

Both types (bacterial and viral) can be caused by human faecal contamination of water. A bacterial example from water is the various Vibrio species, among which is cholera. They can also be caused by faecal contamination from animal sources, and poor food handling. Salmonella and E. coli are the most common bacterial causative agents, and are most often associated with poor hygene in food preparation. Sushi is a common vector, as are egg and dairy products.

Flies are common spreaders of faecal contamination in outdoor areas.

All that said, I've eaten plenty of raw mushrooms, and never got food poisoning from them. When I was at university I sometimes would get a tender stomach after tripping on Psilocybe subaeruginosa, but not enough to vomit or get diarrhea.
