Anyone have any luck controlling geckos?

I talk to mine
They are beneficial

they are non-native and invasive.


And like OP says, they make a mess with their shite.

Only control I've exercised so far is the bottom of my foot.

I like mine. They usually don't show up until the winter and they come looking for warmth. But they don't bother me.

Get some chickens, they disappear quickly.

No we have the translucent ones too. Those giant Curley tail lizards eat them, eat the normal green lizards (anoles)we both have too. They’re invasive and mean as shite.

One bit a baby black racer in half on my driveway.

They’re more of a mess than the insects.

Well that’s because you have an insect problem first. You won’t have geckos without bugs because they have something to eat. So I’d spray or out out some insecticide first.

I encourage mine. The more the better.

My cat tears them up. I always find the decapitated head on the doormat.
