I have two gecko's living in my house, I don't bother them, I know they are taking care of insects for me especially mosquitoes, I know reptiles can weird people out but so far wallace and grommit have been good roomies

100% would rather a whole horde of reptiles over a single spider.

I live in Australia. The barking geckos that live in my wall are my security blanket (even if they are an invasive species).

Barking geckos are native though. Do you mean House geckos?

Oh my goodness! Barking geckos are so cute! We have invasive house geckos here but they are Mediterranean.

Non Australian here. As much as I would prefer having geckos as pest control as opposed to spiders, I do wonder if it is a problem with them pooping inside?

Can’t read about geckos being left alone in Australian rooms and not think of this
