the good news is, if you dont like insects, having him in the house woudl be a good thing, lizards are bug eating machines lol. its likley youll not see him again, hes robably alreayd made his way outside, they "follow the food" so leave your porch light on tonight and hell try and make his way out to the flying free for all out there rather than be inside.

untill then if he is still inside, he will avoid you with every ounce of his being...you are the monster to him lol

Heh, I'm only halfway joking. I think it would be kinda cool to have a lizard-type thingy hanging around my house.

You learn a lot about bugs and such when you live in a place like Florida. I wasn't crazy about them, either, but you learn to live with them after a bit. They were here long before we were.

When I was a kid, chameleons were often thought of as pets. Cousin to the little guy we're talking about.

What are you a little girly-man ? I can tell you he/she has probably been around a while before you saw it.

Maybe we should bring up the little creatures that are crawling all over you, your furniture, and your bed right now?


Are you new to the area you are living now?
