I kill them with a bamboo stick, and then throw the bodies outside for all their brethren to see...as a warning.

I also spray around windows, doors, etc. a water and peppermint/eucalyptus oil mixture, which supposedly helps keep away spiders as well. Even if it doesn't work, it smells pretty good.

BBQ!

the gekkos and the frogs make more noise they a donkey in labour, Having a few cat's about cured the problem for me

The only way I can live here is with earplugs, Thai Loudness... I bought at Watsons or I bring from States.

i enjoy their sound by myself but if you don't, you might use ultrasonic sound makers to make them run away, not them but almost every creature that have ability to hear those ranges

they get caught in rat glue traps...

Personally I like the sound. It is almost comforting. A large 10 inch gecko got in the house and ran amuck. That was interesting. My Thai wife said some Thais like them in their house. kinds keep them as pets. Eat the insects.

Buy some soft ear-plugs...turn on a noise maker of some kind...a fan...a dehumidifier...air cleaner...

Better to have the wildlife around that you can hear, 'Gupgay', they are known as around my area are far more welcome than snakes and scorpions. They are there because of ample food source, find what they eat and eradicate that, they'll move on to greener pastures.

OP: Golden Tree snakes eat the Tokay geckos, so get a couple of snakes in your studio....

On a serious note: ridiculous to not adapt to the wildlife of your guest country. Reptiles have been here for millions of years, don't you think they are entitled to do their calling? (only males call BTW).

Be happy because u just save money on your car insurance

It's those giant noisy cicadas that annoy me.

True, they are noisy. But I always relax when hearing the Tokay cry, because I know it will not attack me (unless intimidated), and it keeps everything smaller than itself abay. No mosquitos, cockroaches, spiders, ants or other bugs around. A very handy janitor in a sense :-)

Live with it, they were around before you were (historically), get ear plugs or move to a country that doesnt have Tookays...take your pick. There are many worse things that could be keeping you awake so be thankful.

I have one living part time in my roof and several at work, still not as noisey as the damn cockrel next door who thinks its dawn at 2am, 3am, 4am, 12pm ect !

have you tried telling them to shut up?

What? With an avatar like yours Pfff Should be ashamed!

Have had a tokay hanging out in our kitchen, bathroom and ceiling for many years now. Consider him/her same as a pet. The tokey's crap consists mostly of recycled bugs. We get along just fine even though he keeps say <deleted> you, but I'm sure he is saying that to his girlfriend and not me. She is a regular visitor also. Swears at him as well.

I'd rather have the Geckos than the Mozzies they eat.

Every so often one gets into my house and suddenly out of the clear blue starts yakking about something. I'm sitting there enjoying the peace and quiet and he starts hollering, almost scares the crap out of me.

Gave up trying to figure out how they keep getting into the house, and have almost got over feeling sad for the ones that do get in as I know I'm eventually going to find their shriveled, dried up little corpses behind some piece of furniture one day after they've starved to death.

And despite seeing the little buggars around all the time, I still end up having to deal with roaches, mosquitoes, termites and ants. I wonder why the geckos seem to starve to death all the time when I'm constantly having to deal with those other pests. Bluddy lizards should be the size of large cats for all the bugs they could (should) be eating around my place !!

Get the vacuum cleaner suck them up & dispose of them(or eat them, some Thais do)works for me ) Repeat every so often when you get to many moving in.

Get them drunk . Then they sleep.

You must be so proud

Cats love to eat them

Well half of them I have seen.... then throw up later!

The roaches in this country are way bigger so maybe they're getting the little insects but they're not ridding my room of roaches (who are harmless). I find their poop all over my window sill every morning.

I feel you should just get used to them as lets face they were here before you were...they are just part and parcel of Thailand..

Elephants were here before us also. We don't let them roam at will do we? Same for tigers etc.

True, but I've never seen them trumpeting whilst walking up walls in a studio either

Drink a few Leos before retiring for the night.

Rock, sling-shot, bb gun, pellet-gun, 22 (if you can get one), arrow. Up to you.

Geckos or Tokays? Tokays are the big noisy ones.

Tokay is cheap wine for down-and-out drunks.

Jingjoo (jing-jôo) is the name for the small ones, and Dukgay's (dtúk gɛɛ) is the name for the big ones.
