We have Gekkos in MD. When we see them we ask for an insurance quote and they leave. Have seen some here crawling up the outside wall, same technique gets rid of them.

Just grab the anole with your hand. He won't hurt you. Just don't squeeze too tight.

Anoles, geckos, lizards....and even iguanas were just part of everyday life when we lived in the Caribbean. Nobody even bats an eye at them. Every once in a while my neighbor will get a bit excited and point out what she calls a gecko and try to get away from it. It always takes me aback a little (like..yeah, so?), then I remember I'm not in the islands anymore.
