The Wall Gecko, also known as the common (or Asian) house gecko, is a small, nocturnal lizard with soft skin. It measures up to 15 cm in length, and is usually grey or light brown to beige in colour. It’s native to south-east Asia, though it’s now found across the world, including large parts of Africa.
These small geckos are non-venomous and not harmful to humans. Most medium-sized to large geckos are docile, but may bite if distressed, which can pierce skin.
In Africa, there is a popular belief that wall gecko lizards aren’t harmful to humans and shouldn’t be killed.
In some cultures, it is forbidden to kill them. But sadly, recent stories read via the internet have made wall gecko lizards an enemy.
Some people are always uncomfortable at the sight of wall geckos in their houses; this is because their appearance may be queer and fishy to a lot of people, which is the major reason for the dislike of this kind of reptile and some species of wall geckos appear only at night and hide in the day. Hence making them to be seen as being a suspicious creature.
Another odd fact about wall geckos or house lizards is that they are a group of reptiles that are only seen on the walls of our buildings and houses, unlike the normal lizard.
Here are a few tips that can help you eliminate or repel wall geckos in your apartment:
