Geckos - according to most comments on Expat forums, most people dispise them and want to kill them off instantly!
Our first encounter with a gecko was when we first arrived. There was one on the wall in our hotel room on Sentosa Island.

Since moving out of the city, we have gotten used to seeing geckos on the wall and having them in our bedroom.
I don't mind geckos, and as it keeps the bug count down!

Just to be pedantic, this is a gecko not a lizard. Loads of 'em about. But you're right, they do keep the insects at bay. But they also poo everywhere!
ReplyDeleteI have amended this blog.
DeleteMember of the lizard family, I take it back!
ReplyDeleteYou're right, it is a gecko! Lizards look a little different :)
DeleteWe have this battle at our place. I love them and the chit chat noise they make. Hubby cannot stand them. Sadly the cat usually has the final say. They never last that long at our house.
ReplyDeleteExcited to have found a blog by another kiwi in Singapore.
Hey Claire, it is so nice to finally meet a fellow kiwi blogger in Singapore. Kiwis are very hard to find over here.
