Hey guys, it's still cold here and wondering if it's OK to toss trich contaminated substrates in compost?

Sure. Why not? It's a natural part of compost.

Yep

Trichoderma is actually really beneficial for plant root systems. It will attack other fungi that is detrimental to the plant. This is why it is added to coir used in hydroponic systems.

There are trich spores all throughout your house whether you actively attempt to keep them out or not
