"Horse manure is organic matter... Dog faeces carry disease and parasites" Your argument is a non-sequiteur. Dog faeces is organic matter and horse faeces carry disease and parasites. Both are pretty unsavory and both ought to be cleared up. | |||

Dog faeces can make you go blind "The amounts can be enough to infect a human. Horses aren't magical creatures that are disease free  I'm pretty its because horses tend to shit in the road, away from where humans walk.

Costs on average about £8 a week to feed him | |||

"Horse manure is organic matter... Dog faeces carry disease and parasites Your argument is a non-sequiteur. Dog faeces is organic matter and horse faeces carry disease and parasites. Both are pretty unsavory and both ought to be cleared up. Make a pile of each.. See which one goes first... I could go into the science of it all.. But there is Google for that... Both aren't nice... I agree.. .. But a long with everything scientific.. Is the fact that horses are unpredictable animals and it would cause more of a hazard to stop in the middle of a road and clean it up.... Unpredictable? You can't exactly specify what time a dog is going to relieve itself either. Leaving a heap of smelly, slidy manure in the middle of the road is certainly hazardous to other road users. I mean unpredictable in the sense that unless you have someone with you, you can't leave it can you..they get spooked easily and harder to control from the ground.. But harder to hold onto a horse while using a shovel.. Than a dog and a doggy bag.... I didn't mean in the shitting sense... I wish my dogs where sometimes though
If your horse gets spooked easily, don't ride it on a public highway. If you can't clear up its excrement, don't ride it on a public highway.
Better round up all those new forest ponies and shoot 'em all too I suppose.....
The difference being that they are not being ridden and controlled by a human being."Don't see that that makes a difference at all, we can't control when a horse empties it's bowels and it's no more or less harmful. Anyway, nuff said - luckily I ride my horses in a rural environment where no-one minds if cattle or sheep or horses do what nature intends, and as there is no requirement to remove it in this country no-one need worry about it, the gardeners can carry on claiming it. | |||

"When there's horse muck on the pavement i agree it's annoying but if it's on the road, really? So what? There's a lot worse pollutants than that. And moaning it gets onto your drive?! Which particular manor house do you own? Does it have shag pile carpet on it?! How many times can this be a problem? Are you new to the area? Or have they just invented horses there? And really, living in Southampton and also getting annoyed with it when we lived in Southampton I'd have loved to have seen a horse! Shitting or not!

"Actually, i retract that, I'm not a "motorcyclist" I'm a fuckin' biker! I love, and hate the road in equal measures! Everytime i ride i expect the road to do all it can to try and kill me! Whether that's man hole covers, white lines, tar bands, wet leaves or even horse shit! It's my job to watch out, and road's job try and hurt me! Horse shit accounts for a tiny percent of road hazards as you should know... " Yup, I learned to drive a bike with the RACACU and almost the whole of roadcraft was learning to assume that everything and everyone was out to kill you lol!! | |||

"Horse manure is organic matter... Dog faeces carry disease and parasites Equine parasites exist too. But they only affect equines. Because a horse is a obligate herbivore it's droppings are far less noxious than dog or cat faeces.
Salmonella and cryptosporidiosis affect people.
Never heard of a single case in 50 years knee deep in horse manure lol! It's pretty benign stuff.
Really? I used to sell thousands of ELISA kits to farmers throughout Europr for it. Just because you haven't come across it, doesn't mean the diseases/parasites don't occur
No, but if you have daily contact with people which amounts to thousands over the years then you can say it is an uncommon, even rare occurrence. Horse manure in the middle of the road is of practically zero risk to a passing human, and the millions of little horsey girls who eat their sandwiches after mucking out their ponies demonstrate it is pretty low even if you are in close daily contact with the stuff!

Nothing in horse manure is of a significant amount that it is toxic to humans...or it would become law to clean it up and people wouldn't use it on their gardens... Dog faeces can make you go blind
So can some of the pictures on this website. But they are legal."Lol! That made me crack up... As for the horse shit - get a horsey bumbag. | |||

The amounts can be enough to infect a human. Horses aren't magical creatures that are disease free I'm pretty its because horses tend to shit in the road, away from where humans walk. If they were shitting on pavements, it'd be different. "tell that to cyclists and motor cyclists when they hit a pile on a blind bend | |||

"Horse manure is organic matter... Dog faeces carry disease and parasites Equine parasites exist too. But they only affect equines. Because a horse is a obligate herbivore it's droppings are far less noxious than dog or cat faeces.
Salmonella and cryptosporidiosis affect people.
Nothing in horse manure is of a significant amount that it is toxic to humans...or it would become law to clean it up and people wouldn't use it on their gardens... Dog faeces can make you go blind
The amounts can be enough to infect a human. Horses aren't magical creatures that are disease free I'm pretty its because horses tend to shit in the road, away from where humans walk. If they were shitting on pavements, it'd be different.
tell that to cyclists and motor cyclists when they hit a pile on a blind bend
I am a motorcyclist ; occasionally encounter it; it's no big deal.
Any motorcyclist who says it is, is not a very competent motorcyclist ....
Rubbish... wet horse poo in the dark can have you off your bike unless you ride around at 10 mph watching out for the stuff.
Nonsense.
Calling all motorcyclists...
Wet horse poo in the road in the dark, hazard or not?
As a BIKER I'm telling you it's no worse than drains, man hole covers, leaves and pedestrians! And certainly not as common! If you don't like the hazards sell your fucking "motorcycle"..you're making me feel embarrassed!
Harsh... Not saying I can't handle hazards part of the excitement of biking...
Just wanted to point out to renard that it is a hazard. .. or are you saying that all of the above not hazards either?
It's a " hazard" like any other hazard;
But if you have to ride round at 10 mph to avoid falling off on these "hazards ", ( or even to see them)
Well ....... No further comment needed really

"1. Human poo 2. Dog poo 3. Cat poo 4. Horse poo I think I have to agree. I was debating the dog and cat poo positioning but I think you have it right.
I think I'd have to have cat & dog in joint 2nd... "My next door neighbour hates me and my cats, to stop my cats shitting in his newly dug flower bed he put mouse traps on it.. Shame he didn't tell the local blackbirds and Robins his plan..... What a cunt. | |||

"It's not just the shit. These horsey-brained and generally horsey-faced harridans who think they own the roads are irritating. They expect you to slow down to 2 mph as they plod their half-ton lumps of dog-food and glue around the lanes. This atrocity is only exceeded by their horsey lorries that they can't drive properly. " I had a nervous 4 year old horse. I had every florescent thing on and light. He was extremely nervous of crossing road bridges. I went out with him trying to increase his confidence. With 2 friends on foot. Both my friends stood either side of the bridge and stopped the traffic. I was half way across and he was doing well. When some obnoxious woman in a merc decided she couldn't wait another 30 seconds. She over took 3 cars and my friends came past me spooked my horse ran my horse over He had to be put to sleep I was in hospital 3 weeks and she wrote her car off.

"Many motorcyclists have crashed due to horse shit on the roads, not many have due to dog shit. So yes there is a big difference." No they have crashed because the rider failed to anticipate , and was not competent to deal with it. | |||

"Horse manure is organic matter... Dog faeces carry disease and parasites Your argument is a non-sequiteur. Dog faeces is organic matter and horse faeces carry disease and parasites. Both are pretty unsavory and both ought to be cleared up. Make a pile of each.. See which one goes first... I could go into the science of it all.. But there is Google for that... Both aren't nice... I agree.. .. But a long with everything scientific.. Is the fact that horses are unpredictable animals and it would cause more of a hazard to stop in the middle of a road and clean it up.... No one is arguing that horse shit is less awful than dog shit. The argument is that it is still pretty unsavoury for an array of reasons and it would improve everything if great clods of it were not left lying around on public byways. I can see a problem, you get off your horse and shovel up a massive pile and put it in a bag (bin liner), how will you fit the bin liner in your pocket?" Find another way. Maybe we need some sort of fabric, sewed together to form a shape which when you place things in it, they don't fall out. I will call my new invention, a bag. | |||

It's even worse when they use their underwear to wipe and then leave it behind.
Not only do you have a pile of human shite, you have a pair of seriously skiddy undies close by. | |||

"Oh ffs! Townies! Get a grip! Do you seriously expect a horse rider to ride with a shovel then stop when the horse shits, get off shovel it into a bag and get back on with said bag? Who holds the horse while they shovel? Will the traffic sit patiently and quietly while all this goes on? Perhaps you will stop traffic get out of your car and hold the horse while they clean up. It's in the road it's just grass it doesn't smell bad and and won't do you any harm jeez" Yes. Country bumpkin, learn how to control your beasts or don't take them out. It used to be said many thimgs would not do you harm. Radium, tobacco, racism, rape. It is all relative. These are large clods of shit on a public highway. Just clear up after yourselves. It is hardly advanced maths. | |||

"Am i the only one that gets annoyed when horse riders are out enjoying a ride (as they are fully entitled too) & their horse decides to take one of the massive poo's that they do & they don't have to clean it up? We have to drive through it onto our drives... If we take the dog a walk we clean up their mess.. Mrs WD40 "Does it damage your drive in anyway? If not I don't see what the problem is. Generally horses po in the road and not somewhere people will tread in it, unlike dog poo. It also doesn't contain some of the more harmful elements dog poo does due to it being vegetation rather than meat based. Although it's obviously po so not like I'd want to wash in it. | |||
