Title: Does anyone know how to get rid of Geckos?

Not a fishing topic but- Does anyone know how to get rid of those noisy barking geckos from your house?     :walkplank

Have asked on other forums and all the animal libbers howl you down for suggesting you do anything about them.

Electric 'blue light' bug zapper with larger 'access' holes cut in the surround.

Detol / Phenol ( wheelie bin cleaner ) in a hand sprayer for getting them outside.

Surface spray or Wasp Spray ( larger stream rather than a mist to get them from a distance. )

So just let them fry themselves in the zapper? Does that kill them? Hope so, they're a pest & kill the native skinks.

yep, it stops them real quick when they touch the electrified grid when looking for moths.
