Could it be any possible to farm some bats in a cave near an outdoor-grow for guano?

How do you introduce a bat to the cave, so it can attract more of them?

How would you control the feeding of the bats so the guano had the highest level of phosphorus possible?

You shouldn’t. Disturbing their habitat will effect their health. Stick to providers with bat-friendly sourcing methods. Don’t do it yourself unless you can do so ethically.

i can't believe you have a cave that doesn't already have a bat population. i've been in several caves, and they ALL have bats.
i have no idea how to control the feeding of a bat...the only way to control the feeding of any flying animal is to fix it so it can't fly......and there goes the whole ethics things, literally out the window

Bat boxes are a big deal around here. Not sure if you could harvest the guano.
