Besides, I like geckos. They eat bugs. I welcome them not only to my property but also into my house. I do not open wide the front door and bow from the waist, gesturing like a butler. But when I surprise one skittering across the kitchen floor by turning on a light, I'm not a bit dismayed. I figure they're controlling the roaches, spiders and flour moths that live in a house where no toxic pesticides are used. Maybe the one in my clothes closet is feasting on the larvae that eat holes in my woolens....
