This cooking buff has no effect on existing instances of {{name}}.

* Cooking with {{favilink|pickled mushrooms}} and {{favilink|fermented yuckwheat stem}} can yield one of two fairly reliable recipes to remove itchy skin. This is subject to random chance, but the [[Carbide Chef]] skill and the inspired buff should nearly guarantee your chances of getting one of the desired recipes with the effect "...you are immune to fungal spores for 6 hours."
* Cooking with {{favilink|pickled mushrooms}} or {{favilink|freeze-dried hoarshrooms}} can yield a triggered effect to remove itchy skin. This is subject to random chance, but the [[Carbide Chef]] skill and the inspired buff should nearly guarantee your chances of getting one of the desired recipes with the effect [[Fungus-based_cooking_effects|"...you are immune to fungal spores for 6 hours."]] Unlike the effect above, this will clear an existing case of itchy skin (as well as preventing new ones for 6 hours, as promised).
* {{favilink|freeze-dried hoarshrooms}} may apparently also be substituted as a cooking ingredient.
* [[Cooking effects]] that grant a triggered effect of "...one of your negative status effects is removed at random" or "...all of your negative status effects are removed" can remove an existing {{name}} effect. You can potentially gain one of these cooking effects by cooking with {{favilink|starapple jam}}, {{favilink|congealed salve}}, or {{favilink|soul curd}}. You'll need to combine one of those ingredients with at least one other ingredient, and the metabolized effect gained by cooking may or may not be the one that can remove negative status effects.

* The physical debuff-removing effect of the [[Regeneration]] [[mutations|mutation]] can remove the {{name}} effect, and it will almost certainly do so before it can develop into a [[fungal infection]], even at mutation level 1.

* [[Recuperating]] objects, such as {{favilink|regeneration tank}} or {{favilink|hyperbiotic bed}} will also remove itchy skin, if it does not evolve into a full fungal infection before the turns required to initiate the recuperation are up

Drinking {{favilink|honey}} or eating {{favilink|yuckwheat stem|plural}} has no interaction with {{name}} because a fungal infection is not considered an illness. They do not prevent it, and they will not reduce the chances of it turning into a fungal infection. For this reason, recipes that cure incubating illnesses also have no effect.
