The Truth
So I had to read the comments :mjlol:


Apparently, the poop smell goes away over time, and it is similar to using clay (when idk why they couldn’t just use clay).


But nah… no way. I know it’s a tradition, but I’m not trusting green cow shyt with water on the floor

Be scared of fermented grass brehs. Yall city dwelling "modern" living people swear you educated. Meanwhile more and more cacs are realizing the beauty of natural sustainable building. They are literally reverse engineering mud huts but won't call them that because they have learned of all their inherent benefits. Naturally sustainable. Naturally great at maintaining optimal temperature. Easy to repair or rebuild. Non toxic.

They told us were savages for using the things on this earth only to go and synthesize all these materials in a bid to best nature.

Now try this with pig shyt and come tell us what you learned. That grass went thru 4 stomachs. 4 steps of processing.

Yea, you did all of this to try to admonish people who don't want to walk on feces. Well guess what, Concrete can be made from natural sources too.

"The primary ingredients of concrete—crushed stone or gravel, sand and water—account for approximately 90% of the volume of the mixture and are plentiful in most locations. Cement, which accounts for most of the rest of the mixture, is usually produced and available regionally as well."


No one has to accept traditional floors covered in cow feces to have green rated floors if they want them. You can live like that, since that is your perogative, but to try to insult others for not wanting to do that is really just BS.

Per the Google machine

In some African cultures, including Uganda, cow dung is traditionally used to refresh and coat floors of homes, particularly in rural areas, according to Wikipedia and Facebook. This practice, known as "ukusinda" in Xhosa or "gwaya" in Ruruuli-Lunyala, is believed to improve hygiene, repel insects, and keep the house warm.

Benefits of using cow dung for floor refresh:
  • Hygiene: Cow dung is believed to have antimicrobial properties, helping to keep the home clean and free of pests, according to YouTube and Instagram.
  • Insects: The practice is also believed to repel insects, according to Wikipedia.
  • Warmth: Cow dung is a natural insulator, helping to keep homes cooler in hot climates and warmer in cooler climates.
  • Binding agent: Cow dung has binding properties, making it a natural cement for floors.
