Horse urine can kill grass primarily due to its high nitrogen content. When horses urinate in concentrated areas, the excess nitrogen can overwhelm the grass, leading to "burning" or discoloration. Additionally, the salts present in the urine can further damage the grass, disrupting its ability to absorb water and nutrients. This combination of factors creates patches of dead or stressed grass.

It's a common misconception that "acid" in dog urine kills grass.
