I keep chickens and use their spent bedding to add to compost heap. I
have
an infestation of red mite in the henhouse at the moment so they are
present
in the chicken droppings/straw bedding mixture.

Is it safe to add this manure to the compost heap? I guess the compost
heap
gets quite hot but red mite like the warmth.

Any advice/comments would be appreciated.
