The Scoop on Poop

For horse people, manure is part of day-to-day life. For people who do not have experience with horses, manure can appear dirty and even toxic. When they see it on a trail or roadway, they may become fearful that the manure will transmit diseases in the same way that dog, cat or other animal leavings can. This article offers a few talking points to alleviate these misplaced fears.

Horse manure is comprised of 70 to 80 percent liquid and 20 to 30 percent solids. The liquid portion absorbs quickly into the ground. The majority of the solid portion – mostly grass and forage leavings – breaks down in the first six days.

Horse manure is biodegradable, natural and contains no petroleum or animal byproducts.

Horse manure is an excellent fertilizer and can improve soil conditions.
There are no known toxic effects on humans due to exposure to horse manure.
The Environmental Protection Agency excluded horse manure from solid waste regulation because it contains neither significant amounts of hazardous materials nor exhibits hazardous characteristics.
Horses do not carry any of the 120 viruses and pathogens that create risk for humans from carnivore and omnivore species.

The pathogens that do exist in horse leavings require ingestion to create a health risk, typically abdominal discomfort.
Most of these pathogens have very short lifespan on the ground, meaning the risk of infection through ingestion is very limited.
No record exists of horses transmitting any disease to humans.
