I was talking to my mom last night and got the word that there are many giant-buckets of freshish bat guano, collected from one of our farm buildings, which was cleared of the bat occupants. Apparently they also dumped, at least double the amount collected for me, into a compost pile.
It sounds like I may have at least 200lbs of fresh and slightly composted PA bat guano. I have made it a habit to never buy guano, but now that i have some free guano I'm thinking about playing around a bit.
So, down to the questions: How long and how many times does the guano need to be composted? I am assuming composting is the way to go with this stuff, but let me know if I'm off base, as I have some fresh to work with as well.
I don't know the species of bat, so I have no idea what it eats, therefore what the NPK composition of the guano is, anyone have any guesses about that?! These bats are in Pennsylvania. I hope that helps.
