That is just too cruel! I guess it's fate of most edible mushrooms, if it's poisonous those bugs wouldn't dare. Just a guess though.

Unfortunately for even poisonous mushrooms many of the chemicals that would wreck a humab body are no problem at all for other animald and insects. Definitely can't use the presence of ingestion by other life forms as a sign of toxins in either direction
