Guano (via Spanish, ultimately from the Quechua wanu, meaning 'dung') is the excrement (feces and urine) of seabirds, cave dwelling bats, and seals. Guano manure is an effective fertilizer due to its high levels of phosphorus and nitrogen and also its lack of odor. It was an important source of nitrates for gunpowder. Soil that is deficient in organic matter can be made more productive by addition of this manure.
Guano consists of ammonium oxalate and urate, phosphates, as well as some earth salts and impurities. Guano also has a high concentration of nitrates. Bird guano has a fertilizer analysis of 11 to 16 percent nitrogen, 8 to 12 percent equivalent phosphoric acid, and 2 to 3 percent equivalent potash. Bat and seal guano are lower in fertilizer value than bird guano.
The word "guano" originates from the Quichua language of the Andes and means "the droppings of sea birds". Andean peoples collected guano from the coast of Peru for use as soil enricher. The rulers of the Inca Empire assigned great value to guano, restricting access to it and punishing any disturbance to the birds with death.

Plot: Jacob and Frank Caesar, two murderous fugitives, have chosen the secluded woods surrounding Rabbit Hash, Kentucky, to bury their latest victim. One shallow grave stands between them and freedom. They had no idea what they were about to get into. In Rabbit Hash, when the sun goes down, the temperature raises. Deep inside this forest, the last remnants of the 1970's - a disco called "The Funk Haven" - languishes. It is the last refuge for the polyester-clad lounge lizards of the bygone decade. But, there is one more thing more terrifying than disco in the new century: they are also VAMPIRES! Tonight at midnight, the Master Disco Vampire, Desmodus, will return to lead his minions to the Vampire Promised Land. However, Rabbit Hash is home to a second clan of vampires called The Crypts. This modern Gothic vampire clan plans to wipe out the Disco Vampires, assassinate Desmodus upon his arrival and begin their conquest of the Vampire Promised Land. Watch as Jacob and Frank battle these fang bearing foes with the assistance of a deranged vampire hunter!
