Yes I believe that’s true, at least for some species. The poop is collected for use as a fertliser hence the resulting tendancy for infection.

Iirc, the phrase “bat shit crazy” comes from the harvesting of tropical bat guano (poop) for use as a fertliser. The poop is highly toxic, or contains toxic bacteria, which makes the harvesters go a little crazy! Not all bat species have this toxic poop.
