My understanding is that these anoles (mistakenly referred to as geckos) are poisonous to animals. I would keep them away from them.

If you find an anole in the house, sneak up behind him with a dish towel, toss the dish towel over the anole and wrap it gently around the anole and take him outside and shake him out so he gets back to his normal habitat. Do not pick him up by the tail as it will snap off.

It is easy and works every time.

For those that are gender challenged, replace him with her if you want.
