THAIPHUKET Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I mean the little Geckos , how to get rid off them? And what about the TuctaTucta hiding somewhere and blaring just when you are about to slip into sweet dreams? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masuk Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 You moved to a tropical country and you're complaining about the little geckos??????? I sure hope one of the mosquitoes they might have eaten doesn't have dengue. Watch out for snakes, pythons, and other nasties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worgeordie Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I never understand why people want to get rid of them, they are part of living here,they are harmless,good fun watching them chase each other,catching insects,including mosquitoes,which in my book,is more of a plus for them, against the droppings which are always dry and easy to clean up,learn to love them.

Chicog Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Just their consumption of horrible little insects should make them everyone's friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daoyai Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I actually have a couple that "beg' at my feet when I eat dinner at home. I drop little bits of food and they devour it, they like rice, pasta, fruit, and meat, they don"t seem to like cheese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I am back in Thailand they make it feel like I'm home. The cheese might give them nightmares! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maejoe Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 You could always get a Tokay ( they dine on geckos) then you would complain that the Tokay's keep you awake at night ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, you certainly know it when a Tokay moves into the neighbourhood. But they're far less intrusive than being surrounded by loudspeakers at 0530, reminding you it's time to pray. I'll stay with Thailand, tokays and all! I wonder if the Thais count the calls a tokay makes, as a certain number means good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first time I thought it was really odd, I've never heard one go that many before. Don't mind him though, as he's fairly subdued. We had one a couple of years ago that was on steroids and sounded like a very loud caricature of himself. I actually laughed every time I heard him.

haybilly Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Just don't try to move a Tokay against his will--they are ferocious things with adequate teeth and the balls to use them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
