1. Determine the place of growth: termitomycetes usually grow on the ground of broad-leaved forest or coniferous forest, especially around pine, oak, hazelnut and other tree species.
2. Determine the suitable season: termitomycetes generally grow from summer to autumn, and the best search time is from July to September.
3. Looking for a suitable environment: termitomycetes like a humid environment, so the success rate of looking for termitomycetes after rain or in a humid day is higher.
4. Observe the ground: carefully observe the accumulation of organic matter such as leaves, pine needles and dead branches on the ground, which are ideal substrates for termite growth.
5. Look for the appearance characteristics of termitomycetes: the lid of termitomycetes is umbrella-shaped, usually light brown or yellowish brown in color, with a diameter of 10-20cm. There are fluffy scales on the surface of the cap body and obvious uplift in the center. The bacterial folds are drooping and the density is high. The stipe is thick and the bottom is swollen.
