⚠️ Safety information – Mushroom spores (respiratory tract)
Mature mushrooms release spores. Inhaling large quantities of spores can irritate the respiratory tract and lungs and, with repeated exposure, trigger allergic reactions up to and including extrinsic allergic alveolitis ("Mushroom Worker’s Lung").
- Allow to fruit in well-ventilated rooms; do not place in bedrooms or living areas.
- Harvest mushrooms just before they release their spores to reduce the spore load.
- Sensitive, allergic or pre-existing individuals as well as persons with constant exposure: Wear respiratory protection (FFP2/FFP3).
- Never consume contaminated or moldy cultures; dispose of the bag closed and do not stir up/inhale spores in the process.
All details on safety and application can be found on the respective product page in the shop.
