Mushrooms in the lawn indicate a lack fo diversity in the fungi. You have
one species "winning", and to stop the Shroom problem you need to improve fungal
diversity. It also indicates a probable piece of buried wood in your soil
somewhere, that the fungus is growing on. Again, to make the one species stop,
you need to improve fungal diversity, and as you suspected, also help out the
bacteria, so they out-compete the one "winner" fungus.

but the conviction that what we are doing makes sense, no matter how things
turn out." -- Vaclav Havel, former President of the Czech Republic
