Well, the UV is the key when the bird crap hits the pile, as they say.
Dead microbes after a day of good sunlight?  You stretch it with the
bird poop example.

The point is,IMHO, for those who are wondering what this is all about: 
You need to use the best compost you can. Ask for tests. Test yourself.
Make sure your machine is clean, clean, clean....no bioslime.  And make
sure your machines are pushing sufficient air just to be absolutely
sure you are not growing pathogens.  If you made your own machine. Get
tea tested.

Cheers,

jeff
