"The biggest difference in my daily life is that I'm free from attack by fleas. When my floor was earth, it used to hold a lot of fleas which used to cause discomfort by their vigorous bites. I had to put up with them because I had no better means of managing them but since I got the transfer, I'm done with them through cementing the floor of my house."
