Pretty sure those are some kind of sucking insect like aphids. A little liquid sevin in water sprayed on them will knock them out quick.
As for the sunlight thing, every plant I ever got from him or anyone else I put straight in the ground in the sun, and every one lived.. I shade them in the afternoon the first week or so with a well placed chair or something, but bananas love sun. If they don't have leaves, it can't hurt them at all. Any new growth will come out already adjusted to the light. When they are sick like that, they need energy to fight back to health. Early morning sun would be best.
