Man does not have the only memory, The animals remember, The earth
remembers, The stones remember, If you know how to listen, they will tell
you many things.
Direct sunlight kills them quite quickly (matter of hours) without it
being particularly warm.
Freezing WILL kill them, but it takes a really hard freeze, since there
is a certain amount of warmth that is generated by the bacterial action in the
manure. They will definitely die when it gets into single digits and
subzero, unless they are in a pretty deep compost heap... And again, if
the manure is broken up, it doesn't take as much to freeze them, either.
