Some people are allergic to chemicals. If you don't like spraying insecticides, you could use the easy method described by Caveman:

"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."
