When we first moved to AZ, I caught a tiny lizard in my storage room. I was surprised to hear it squeak. It was a gecko.

We have Geckos here. Had not seen one here until past 6-8 years. Sort of like seeing them, they eat bugs.

At night I often see them on the glass of my front door. Light from inside draws insects, the Geckos will climb up to the glass and catch the insects. From time to time they will get in the house. Try to gently get them out.

Have seen some that must have hatched in the house. Were very tiny and almost translucent.

Nature is amazing.

Yeah. Geckos. That was the lizard I was trying to think of.
Lots of them around here. I guess they and the chameleons aren’t having any problems.
Don’t care for geckos.
The green chameleons are pretty (when they turn green- instead of brown :) - but the little buggers will sure try to bite you.
