Mushrooms out of control!

I have some blue mushrooms that divide very fast and are spreading beyond my control. Does anyone have a good way to remove them without damaging anything else?

You could frag and sell them online or to your LFS.

With a razor blade... you could also chip out the rock they are attached to but i favor a nice sharp blade.

Can you just cut them off at the stock or will they grow back if you leave any part of them behind?

Yep cut them out with a razor blade at the base. Look here http://www.reefvideos.com/ it will be the second video from the left and five down. It's called fragging mushrooms. Hope that helps.
