We love our lizards (anole), geckos, toads and garter snakes. They have brought the "bad" bugs under control and kept them at bay, while the "good" bugs seem to be happy and abundant. Although they may startle me once in a while (nothing like stepping into the shower and having a gecko run over your foot
) it's not so bad having them in the house to control the little bugs that can be so annoying, including those nasty little spiders that pack a punch! If only the cats didn't find them so appetizing...
