Description

Native to Southeast Asia, the common house gecko (Hemidactylus frenatus) gets its name from people’s frequent sighting of it climbing the walls of houses. It has a liking toward urban environments where it remains solitary and territorial although not harmful or dangerous. It is typically docile around humans, but If threatened will either bite or hide. It is also known by its distinct chirping form of communication or way to defend its territory. Also known as the house lizard or wall gecko, the common house gecko is nocturnal, spending its days basking in the sun and preying on insects that are attracted to porch lights during the night.
