It is also currently found in North, Central and South America and the Caribbean, where it has been inadvertently introduced by humans.[2][3]

This species can attain a maximum length, from snout to vent, of 12.7 cm (5 in). Being nocturnal, it has very large eyes which are useful in spotting prey in low light conditions. It can change color (slowly) from light brown to a darker brown to better match its surroundings). This Gecko is from Africa and hitching rides to the New World aboard slave ships from West Africa.
식성[편집]
Its diet is varied, and includes animals such as spiders, scorpions, cockroaches, moths, anoles and other geckos with the most important element being Orthoptera species.
발성[편집]
As with many gecko species, it has the ability to vocalize. Its vocalizations range from quiet peeps to rapid short squeaking sounds. They may be heard most easily on a quiet night when they are sitting near an open window.
습성[편집]
The tropical house gecko can be found predominantly in urban locations.
Tropical house geckos are mainly nocturnal and are voracious hunters of nocturnal flying and crawling insects. They have learned to wait near outside wall-mounted lighting fixtures so as to catch the insects that are drawn to the light.
사람과의 관계[편집]
In some Caribbean cultures it is considered good luck to have a tropical house gecko residing in your home, and certainly they do eat a lot of household insect pests. However, the feces of the tropical house gecko are approximately 스크립트 오류: "convert" 모듈이 없습니다. long, 스크립트 오류: "convert" 모듈이 없습니다. wide, and dark brown (almost black) in color. The gecko will usually confine its feces to one area of a home, but if that area happens to be a pale-colored carpet, drapes, or any other easily stained surface, the stains are not easily removed, and the droppings have to be physically scooped up as well.[4]
