They are abandoned and dead. Roguelikes have evolved. Now is the age of Roguelites. No longer are you bound by sheer numbers,live action decides things.
You should EMBRACE it rlg

Fungaloids? Those are mostly harmless.
If you kill a regular fungaloid in melee, there's a chance to get a deadly fungal infection. This is bad, but the regular fungaloids don't actually try to fight you, so you can just walk past them. At least until they breed enough to block everything completely, but that should take a while. They're safe to kill at range, or with reach attacks.
Fungal fighters will attack you, but you won't catch the fungus from them, and they aren't very strong.
Fungaloids also fight zombies, or rather stand around and infest zombies when they die. This leaves you with fungal zombies, but they're pushovers.
The fluid sacks can be rendered into cooking oil.

Fungal fighters are actually triffids, which you probably don't want to mess with early on, especially if you're using pk mod.
