We have a lot of blue tailed lizards here. They find their way into the basement and I see them running around the outside of the house and carport.  .  The bug population has seen a significant decline.  
 

they look almost as prehistoric as Crocketts.  

 

Every year one young lizards makes it into my screened patio somehow. There are just enough bugs getting in under the door to feed them. They become tame over time. When they are grown I relocated them into my yard.

He favors the one on the commercials.  Something I don’t see as much of anymore are praying mantises.  They could make a great sci-fi movie based on those things.

In Texas, they'd get in the house all the time (not the anoles,  but the gecko-things like that one) and lay eggs all over.

The circuit breaker box was in the bedroom.  One huge bastard,  for like a year,  would come in through the conduits (back where I couldn't seal them, without pulling the whole thing off the wall) and start "peeping" (grunting?) (beeping?) LOUDLY in the early early morning.  I hateds that guy.

My wife would laugh,  because I kept an aquarium fishtank net by the panel, and she'd wake up to find me naked,  in the dark, net in hand, trying to silently open the box.  All I ever saw of him was a flash of grey,  as he disappeared behind the wires.  I finally filled the box with mothballs, and he quit coming around.
