Yep, it was my son-in-law, a former Eagle Scout, who corrected me and said they were anoles and not geckos. We have baby anoles right now and my little dog loves to chase them. Usually a brown shade, I have found green ones that are much prettier...perhaps those are geckos. Anyone?

Try to locate their entry point from under the siding in your lanai , spray their access point under the siding with spray foam expands and closes their entry . Worked for us .

I find it easier just to grill them on a skewer 5 or 6 at a time then its so much easier to eat!

In Hawai'i, a gecko in the house is considered good luck because they go after the bugs and centipedes. Hawai'ian centipedes are nasty buggas. Nine inches long and their bite will put you in severe pain for 7-10 days. I'll take geckos and anoles any day over bugs in the house.

Cute to look at outside but didn't like trying to catch one inside the lanai. Did NOT want to sleep with that thing crawling around the villa. Caught it with a lot of "GROSS GROSS GROSS" semi screams.

my son would go nuts if someone didn't explain that anoles and geckos are not the same lizard. LOL

They seem territorial. I have two who like to climb the screen on the lanai. They come so often I have given them names. One of them is a guard, any other anole is really not welcome. He puffs out his throat and the tail curls. A true little dragon! One time he got inside and I had Massey put him outside gently. Now I know how to do it too.

We have one without a tail, who we named "Stubby". He must have had a bad encounter with a predator. He's always just outside the slider, and last night he was clinging to the inside of the screen, where he spent the night. Stubby is now growing a new tail, which is much darker than his body, and once it fills in, we'll have to rename him.
