Rule number one when growing outdoor,
Grow enough for you and the bugs 
There is not much you can do, do not insecticides

the only trip you'll get with shrooms and insecticides is to the hospital.

I would say snails or slug.....was tripping and went out that night to a patch to enjoy the scenery and say the biggest, slimiest snail eaten the fuckers. go out at night after you have watered or it has rained and follow the slime trail and kill those fuckers!!!!!!

You could put some of that stuff that kills snails around the grow. Like 3 feet away from the grow all the way around. Bam dead slugs so thats one pest down.

If it is snails put a ring of salt around the mushrooms. They h ave a hard time eating them when they are turning to foam. 
Fungas Gnats are a whole nother prob.

For the most part anything that will hurt the bugs will hurt you when you eat the shrooms. There are some things you can do though. Salt is good for slugs, if its ants throw Cinnamon around the grow. It doesn't hurt them that I can tell but they act like its toxic waste for some reason and stay away from it.
