It's a stinkhorn fungus. The name is self explanatory. Once the
spores are in your yard as long as you have the right conditions
(rotting vegetation, mulch, compost etc + moisture + warm
temperatures) then they will keep poping up. Cutting off the
fruiting body (the phallic bit) before its little gills open ( you
will need to be quick, these erections don't last long) and release
the spores may contain the spread but don't count on it.
So, it is like a guy who doesn't wash, and has
premature ejaculation, and won't wear a condom?
Eeeeewwwww.
Since scooping them up in old Walmart bags doesn't seem effective, will
you get better results cutting them if you wear a Lorena Bobbit costume?
