What kind of lizard is this2007-11-24 2:03:40

i have noticed lizards around my apartment that unlike any i have ever seen.they are almost transparent and have red spots on them.i have three cats, and my neighbor just brought home a new born, we are worried about them..what kind are they?

Answers:

they are baby geckos the get to a cream color as they age and are harmless. They do make good children's pets though and you can buy the larger ones in pet shops. You probably are seeing them because they are feeding more before the winter, so you should see less bugs.

Do not touch them or let your cats play with them!

Sounds like a gecko. They are harmless, They eat bugs, not babies

They are just another form of skink. They are not poisonous, so no worries. The most common species of skink are black with a blue or red tail. The red spotted variety are primarily seen at night, but when the seasons change, they can be seen at all times of the day.

My first guess is a Gecko but I would suggest comparing to pictures to make sure. Try http://www.junglewalk.com/info/gecko-inf. to start with.

It has got to be a gecko. They really like to hang out around light sources outside, because that is where the bugs congregate.

They are of no harm to you, your baby, or your cat. :)
