MONSTER MUSHROOMS above ground-down-below-ground tree-trunk

Very large tree got sick and had to come down.
Then the usual "grinding-down of the stump". (I then paid more and
got it ground down even more, to maybe 1 foot beneath the surface.)
Around the (alive) tree was a rock-edged circle, radius maybe 6 feet,
ground within raised up maybe 6 inches.
Anyway, after the tree was taken down and stump ground way down, we
turned that rock-edged circle into a garden, lots of different plants,
flowers, etc.

Lots of rain in the last two or three weeks. So of course some
mushrooms appear here and there in the lawn. SMALL mushrooms.
But, in that rock-edged garden, good lord!, LOTS of mushrooms, MONSTER
mushrooms. Each being between maybe 8 inches to ONE FOOT across (ie
diameter).
To date, I have not even touched one of them, they're so gross, much
less tried to dig one up.
------ MY QUESTION:
How do I get rid of these things?
You could just leave them. They won't be there long and their presence adds
a quaintness and unique feature to your lawn.
They might even attract fairies and leprechauns.
