I'm just wondering if any of you have successfully utilized geckos in
an environmentally friendly insect control program?


We have a few that have made their home inside our pool cage. They
are relentless bug hunters and interesting to watch. I haven't seen
any on the boat but who knows.


Our cats love to chase and eat spiders, but most of the spiders are up in
the rigging or in places where the cats would likely fall overboard, were we
to take them sailing. They would also make short work of a little green
insurance salesman.
