I have lawn mushrooms their small.
How do I get rid of them
Rake them up and throw them out. There isn't much that can be done to get rid of them chemically. They grow after a wet winter sometimes and should just go away as the soil dries out and the organic matter they are feeding on is depleted.
You may have fairy rings if its in a circle again not a lot you can do. If it persists dig out down to 20cm to get rid of the fungus and start again but this is more common in summer. But wet weather can also bring out fungus which arnt fairy rings and usually comes from the tatch layer in the turf, so it is best to scarify the turf. All the best.
I disagree with raking the mushrooms. This will just spread more seeds.Quote:

First of mushrooms don't have seeds, its spores and If you rake out the thatch from the lawn in autumn chances of getting the mushrooms is reduced, also if you remove the mushrooms when they are young, spores wouldn't have developed in time.
