I walked into my bathroom a few minutes ago, tuned on the light and saw the end of something that had a tiny tail. I am saying. "oh please don't let it be a mouse". I have a very small bathroom so something can't hide very well in there.
So I sar down and all of a sudden I see this little head. It inched out a bit and to my surprise it was a lizard. No problems. I finished up what I was doing and left him to be.
He better not chew on my plants or we will have issues.

A couple of times I´ve had a small lizard in my tub. It is quite hard to take them out without harming them.

@louievill They do. The first time I caught one and part of its tail came off I thought I had killed it. We put it into an aquarium and it lived and the tail grew back.

@velvet53 I think lizards have the ability to regenerate their tails.

That's interesting! So, you have adopted him?

@velvet53 Aren't you afraid of stepping on him accidentally?

@1hopefulman They are fast enough that he will get out of the way before that happens. They are fun to watch.

I don't think lizards would chew on your plants. Let's hope not!
They usually eat insects!

We don't have much of a lizard problem here, I would not harm one unless he got too big. Not interested in having a Godzilla in my house.

Interesting story since in my sisters home we had a visit from a frog and a very small snake this past year. I am hoping that Hurricane Harvey does not come Lake Charles since I do not want to see anymore frogs or snakes.

@Deepizzaguy I don't mind some snakes as they are useful just like lizards are. But ther are ones that I don't want anything to do with. It is funny how I have changed over the years. I used to hunt rattle snakes but not anymore.

So cute. I like lizards. We don't have them around here unless they are pets.

I leave them alone, they help control pesky insects like mosquitoes, the only problem is when my cats get at them.
