First, no offense to the resident gecko!

Second, I know they are friendly critters and they chase/eat other bugs.

But that being said, I don't like them and I don't want them in my house. As far as I know they don't have anything to feast on inside of my house but they still find a way into the moderately cool and dryness of my house as an escape from the heat and humidity outside.

My dear cat was supposed to help this problem, or so my local bug guy told me last year when I whined to him about this problem. He suggested my cat would like to play with and catch the little lizards.

Unfortunately this hasn't proven to be the case. He missed the four inch long critter tonight in my dining room. Of course when I saw it, there was much jumping and yelling. This likely scared my poor cat which is why he sat on the stairs and just looked at me as I chased the gecko.

So, does anyone have some wonderful home remedy of how to keep them outside of my house. They can live in the garage and anywhere in the yard they like, I just don't want them inside.

But they bring good luck, or so says the Asian legend about having them bark when a baby is born.

Never argue with an idiot. He'll drag you down to his level, & beat you with experience.

I'd much MUCH rather have Geckos than these blasted ants I have to deal with!, this year they are really bad, nothing seems to get rid of the damn things, maybe I'll just burn the whole house down, that will teach them!

Large snakes eat geckos and so do predatory birds. Could u live with them?

Sorry, but I don't have any other ideas.

Do you know where they are getting in? Only thing I can suggest is to find that place[s] and seal it up so they can't squeeze through anymore. Or...get your cat a companion...falcon!

they flatten themselves and get in through any possible crack in the house. Unfortunatley homes in the south, in my experience anyway, aren't built nearly as sound as those in the north. None of my doors are quite square - I've been told this is normal and something that is part of live in Texas living on a foundation.

Large snakes, babies, cats, falcon and geckos.

Maddy, please… PLEAE get a special chest to keep yourPANTIES in. :lust:





… preferably one built in the north.

As for the extermination part, just be careful. What kills Geckos might kill your cat.

My advice: Talk to a professional exterminator.

Good luck!
