They eat bugs. Leave them be.

She in love with spiders? Because getting rid of geckos is going to get her a bunch more of them.

Release some Tokay geckos, they will probably wipe out your mediterranean gecko problem.

Bring them to me. Used to have a bunch and it was great for the bugs.

My wife used to be afraid of tree frogs, despite the fact that I keep telling her they were eating all the mosquitoes etc

Then she needs to grow the frick up. They are not rattlesnakes, they're lizards for crying out loud, and beneficial ones at that.

I don’t have an issue with the geckos and the wife doesn’t want to harm them just relocate them. But I’m gonna convince her to leave them alone.

Starting giving them the names of your in laws..... then start shooting them with a B.B. gun. She’ll ask you to stop.

Had a serious issue with them at my boat shed. They were shitting all over my bay boat. I went to a pest store and the guy there basically said the way to get rid of them is to get rid of their food source. I sprayed bug spray, kept the light off, and put up glue traps. It helped a little but I had a serious issue

much to our delight our patio and court yard is full of them. They are fun to watch, really do leap, and like every one else is saying very good to have around.

I Have many around my house as well. Don’t mind them at all. What I didn’t like was them littering my brand new bay boat with feces.

Mix up a patch of Malathion but use twice as much as called for. Whenever you see a gecko spray him . It won't kill him right away but he won't last long. Also works on other lizards and pee frogs. It will also keep the food source down.

And. . . swallow what you don't spray.

I suppose he could have an exterminator nuke the place on a regular basis so there's not a reliable food source and they'll move on.
