I have some fungus in my lawn how do I get ride of it?

There are several types of fungus that can grow in the lawn including mushroom, dollar spots and fairy rings. They have a way of taking over the entire lawn in a hurry. The first step to prevent them from forming is to keep your lawn dry. It is best to water the lawn early in the day to give it time for the sun to dry it. To kill existing fungus you can try a mixture of baking powder and water and then spray that over the fungus. Using plain corn meal can also do the trick. If the fungus is the slime mold variety then raking or mowing will help. If you have fairy rings then spike them.
