Pam, I find this interesting site which shows pics of the more
dangerous fungi. It might help set your mind at rest - I hope!

Sigh, when oh when will I stop doing that.....!

What they don't say is that pretty well the only reason for action
is if the tree is likely to be dangerous. The spores of the common
ones are ubiquitous and carried by the wind, so removing the ones
growing on stumps doesn't help much, if at all. And, once soil-born
fungi are in your soil, there is damn all you can do except to plant
less sensitive species.

So doing nothing is generally recommended ....
