Default Destroying Angel

Uh oh ...

Just found a couple of what look like Destroying Angel mushrooms in the
wooded part of our garden. I am complete rubbish at identifying mushrooms
and fungi, but I reckon these might be the real thing.

My question: What do I do with/to them? (Giving them to the mother-in-law
has already been considered - The wife vetoed the idea though). Leave
them?
Carefully remove/burn/bury them?

No kids around, wildlife mainly birds and foxes, no pets.

They'll probably turn out to be somthing safe, but just askin' in case

Al.


If it were me, and I was worried about something that poisonous, I'd ring my
local authority, as a starting point, and ask for advice.
