Micelium growing on cultivated mushroom?

Hello guys! Hope you're all doing great today! I'm from Argentina and been growing Thai Pink Buffalo succesfully. The last harvest I had was between 1 or 2 weeks old. Where I live the weather is really humid so you can guess that leaving the shrooms to dry the way nature want them to be dried is a veeeeery slow process. Anyways, I wanted nature to do its thing but it seemed that nature procedeed to make some other crazy things, and I think, it started growing some kind of micelium over the almost-dried mushroom. I leave a picture so you can see by your own eyes what I'm saying.
Now I've left them in a ceramic bowl above the wi-fi router so the heat may kill that "micelium" and dry the shrooms faster.
Is it dangerous for the shroom to be consumed?

BTW I'd like to know if my english is good at all 
And a huge thanks to everyone in this forum for all the precious information there is. Couldn't have grown any shroom if it wasn't for you all.
♥ Alejandro

I suggest heated dehydration (in a proper dehydrator: get one at goodwill for 15-20)for a full 24hrs... these look to be reverting to the mycelium they grew from, indicating that they're not dry, and may have other nasties present... you can always make tea with the fruit... rapid boil them in 2 cups of water for 20-25 minutes, strain out the fruit material and drink the left over concoction ... this can even be further reduced (in volume) with continued boiling... the actives are stable at over 300°F so as long as there is some water present, you're safely below the boiling point at only 220°F( the absolute hottest rapid boiling water can get )

Man! I didn't expected such a quickly answer, thank you! The way I consume is the way you describe the process. Wouldn't be any issues if a do a lemon-tek with these? I like them both.
And unfortunately I don't have a dehidrator but I have done this "wifi router drying tek" which seems to work really well.

Lemon tek isn't likely to leave much alive, but a full boil is your best bet
Invest in proper equipment to get proper results my friend... brand new a dehydrator is 80 USD...
