KIDS (inside the house): MOOOooooM, WE FOUND A GECKO, WE FOUND A GECKO!!!
MOM: Eeeewwwww! Get him out--take him outside!!!
July, 2009:
KIDS: WE FOUND A GECKO, WE FOUND A GECKO--IN OUR BATHROOM!!
PARENTS: Leave him alone--don't anyone touch him--he likes to eat insects!
Of course, one of ours, who shall remain nameless to save embarrassment, couldn't leave him alone and transported him downstairs to show everyone gathered in the kitchen. The gecko promptly escaped and was last seen scurrying down a hole between two kitchen cabinets. The parents were practically giddy because now, in this location, he can eat all the fruit flies his little body can hold!

I think I would be okay with the geckos as long as they are not sleeping with me.
