Maggots in shroomies

So I popped about 15 freshly picked libs (yeah not a lot I know) Into a pan of boiling water to make some shroom tea.
About 7 tiny white maggots suddenly appeared in the pan, they must've been chilling somewhere unseen in the caps and the heat drew them out.
I carefully scooped them out, then after stirring for a while, another couple appeared, which I also scooped out.
Is this still fine to drink?
I'm assuming they must be in quite a few shrooms I've eaten fresh and raw before and you just normally don't notice them... :/
I don't mind drinking a few springtails, but maggots are pretty gross. I just hope they've all made their exit at this point...

Maggots are clean, fuck it. Drink up. Me though, probably gross me the fuck out and I would toss it. BUT I know that ingesting some maggots is not bad for you.
Pick em out and drink!

Coming from a person who doesnt have the blessing of tripping very often .. its just a few maggots lol. F it  I used to pick ounces and ounces out in the fields in florida. During the tropical storms they were crawling all in them also. This is why I always dried out my shrooms with a very high powered fan, against a cardboard wall entrapment I made. Theres not much you can really do unless you chop them all up fresh and remove them. When you dry them they naturally come out cuz theres no more moisture. Gross for sure but hey, I wouldnt mind if i had some mushies.  Good luck OP

Damn that is disgusting. I personally wouldnt be able to eat them knowing their were nasty ass maggots inside of the shrooms. Grosssss!
Its probably safe to eat them still. I just wouldnt be able to.

It's safe. I would if I saw that. I love maggot videos on Youtube. Fuck that in real life.

Well if you think about it, all the maggot has been consuming is mushroom So it won't be filthy and dirty like maggots you find in dead animals In Italy they put maggots in cheese and because the only thing the maggot has been eating is the cheese it tastes like cheese, I think the same principle applies here
Eat away dude!

Dude, strain that shit out and drink up. I eat a lot of wild edibles and you always have a worm or two popping up out of them when they hit the fire. Cooked worm is just protein. If you make tea the right way you strain and don't eat the mushrooms anyway. 
Drink up and enjoy the trip.

Yeah they're just Fungus gnat larvae, protein they are also active, since they're eating the mushroom.
You can get them all out if you put them in the oven on the lowest heat with the door ajar, they will just crawl on to the dish to escape the heat.
I don't have any after drying, both naturally and fast, but i'm sure i've ate a good few fresh believe me :P

With each containing one of the following: Cyanide... Psilocin... Would you take the risk? Didn't think so. This is why Positive Identification prior to consumption is important.
