Reading up on Shallac, it says that it is a resin secretion of an insect that feeds on certain trees, mailnly in Thailand and India.
If you want to go further on the subject of secretions, then add Honey Bees to you list, they drink nectar from flowering plants, then return to the hive and regurgitate it back up into wax cells, the wax is another secretion from Bees. Then we have fertilisers, again mostly secretions from various animals, and some of it has a right pong.
