Two men from Rochester, New York have passed away after the bat guano they used to fertilize their Marijuana plants, released a harmful fungus.
The two men inadvertently breathed in spores of the Histoplasma Capsulatum fungus during the fertilization process leading to a condition known as Histoplasmosis.
Their symptoms, before their untimely passing, included chronic cough, blood poisoning and respiratory failure. One man was 59-years-old and the other was 64-years-old . The two men contracted the condition independent of each other, with one man obtaining his guano online while the other collected it from his own attic.
Although guano is a popular fertilizer for use in Marijuana plants, experts warn against it due to the potential dangers.
