Although the Anoles are beneficial, some people have a phobia of little reptiles. My brother in law suggested mothballs, and it seems to keep the lizards, snakes and frogs away. Even as they melt away (the mothballs) you may feel comforted and the aroma of mothballs may remind you of your grandmother and her chicken soup.
Slow down, enjoy a sunset and the next step in your life. ENJOY

If you had one more often you would get used to it. Article from a few weeks ago about lizard sex.

They are harmless little bug eaters...worry about the important issues like crazy drivers....smh

You should leave them alone, they love to eat bugs

[Loronthego]

We were told there will be a lot of them if you have a lot of ants. The key is to get rid of the ants and they will leave as well. It worked for us.

The ones you see are invasive but have supplanted the native green anoles and are important for the control of insects. If you want to keep them off your lanai, I have found that taking a plastic loofah sponge apart and stuffing it under the aluminum threshold keeps them out.

You can keep them out of your house by using mothballs

[chrisinva]

you mean these critters?

[equaintance]

Why? Are they bothering you? Do they damage your property?

Our Anoles eat bugs but as others have said, they poop everywhere.

They don’t hurt humans. They eat bugs. If you see a decrease in them, then there is a snake nearby

The little “lizards”, frequently referred to as geckos are actually anoles. They are harmless to humans and do a lot to keep unwanted bugs away. Live and let live, but I don’t really like finding one in my house. I suggest not keeping your doors open. I occasionally will get one inside, likely snuck in thru the doggie door. I found a stunned frog in my house once and was able to successfully move it to the outside. Get used to them, they were here first.
