I live in Texas and these non-native non-endangered Mediterranean Geckos have made havoc for me and my friends. One of them got in the wiring of my house and started a small fire that almost burnt down my house. A friend of mines two year old daughter was playing with one (not a pet, a wild one) that was in her house and she put it in her mouth the parents after realizing what happened removed the gecko, afterwards she got salmonella and was hospitalized for over a week ... she nearly died.

I know people love these animals, but just like squirrels, rats, and snakes these animals are a pest for homeowners. On yahoo answers so far all I have heard is how beneficial these lizards are for eating bugs; however they are small and only eat a few bugs a day, and I can kill more bugs with pesticides. I am not going sit idly by while these pest destroying my house and endanger children. I need real help!

Thanks in advance

Raspberry bushes & a garden are only a few feet away from a house foundation where Termidor was applied in ground. Will the roots take up the poison to make vegetables/berries unsafe for people to eat?

I need to find 5 people who need their house cleaned once a week or once biweekly. I don't have money for advertisement or anything like that. I went to my city's newspapers website to see if anyone posted ads on needing their house cleaned but found nothing. What can I type in google or something to find people who have posted ads saying they need a house cleaning service

I have seen small, white bugs in the bathroom. They are about the size of a grain of salt and are around the window and bathroom tile. I bleached the tub but they are still there. Any ideas what they are? or how to get rid of them?

I keep getting lizards (mainly geckos 2-5 inches) and I want them dead or out of my house (and my garage).... what is the best way to kill them dead.

Also I don't want to hear anything from bleeding heart lizard lovers. Yes, they kill small insignificant bugs, but so do mice, rats, and snakes and I don't want them either. Besides I can kill bugs with pesticides.

I have been spraying the lizards (when I see them) with roach spray. Hopefully that destroys their nervous system and kills them, but they run off and I never see if they die or what.

I NEED REAL LIZARD KILLING ADVICE! No lizard lover advice!

I want them dead... I want their family dead ... I want their house burnt to the ground (oh wait that would be my house).

Because my hours were cut at work for a couple weeks the money I had saved up to get my furnace fixed had to be used to pay bills and lot rent. The most I have saved up is about 200 dollors. So...I have to use the alternative which means I cant afford to have my furnace worked on but I still want to keep the house somewhat warm. I live in Michigan so winters can get pretty cold at times. I also live in an older style mobile home. Everyone keeps telling me to use space heaters but I really dont want to go that way because of the way they run up the electricity. I was thinking of covering my windows with plastic, and thick blankets, using alot of blankets on myself, have lots of soup and hot drinks. someone mentioned using 100 watt lightbulbs or heat lamps. Anymore suggestions would be helpful. Or has anyone else been in a simular situation? Also will my pipes outside freeze with no furnace? I do have them wrapped with heat tape and I leave the water trickling. Help please

2 trees feel on my house during a storm, they broke my backyard iron fence and are covering more than half of the ground of my lawn. They are just laying there.

They are not my trees, they belong to a small property area behind my lawn. Behind that property area is another house with a lawn. So I think this property belongs to government since its neither mine or of my neighbor behind me.

Now, I don't know who to call? I don't know any name or number for that property behind my house. The property is just a ground which is 30 or 40 feet long and 8-10 feet wide, and have long large trees, woods, and other junk on it.

Since the fence is broken a turtle have crossed and is living in my lawn. He must be living in that property area before along with some cats (I also believe the local cats live there at night ).

I have $1000 deductible for home insurance which means I might have to pay $1000 if I call my insurance. I only have $100 in my bank. I am sick diabetic man with no money

I am looking to get an aluminum fence put up around my home is West Virginia. I need it to be 4ft tall and meet BOCA standards. The fence will cover 389 feet and have a 10ft gate. I have one quote of 14,000 and a second quote of 12,500. I still have more companies coming out to see what they have to say. I received estimates of $7000 to buy the materials and have the fence delivered. So those to quotes still seem high to me. What are you opionions? If you know anyone around Martinsburg, WV that will charge a fair price let me know.

I live in Cartersville Ga and over the past 3-4 weeks we have had a problem with little black ants on and in our vehicles. Not just a few I mean at least 100 or more. They are all over the console, dash, seats, floor, and the shifter. I have vacuumed and cleaned the heck out of it and still everyday there are ants. They were all on and in my daughters carseat we don't allow food to be eaten in the car so I know it can't be from something someone spilled. My husband yesterday parked his beand new truck he had just bought and within 2 hours ants all over the exterior and interior of it. We have treated the yard since we have moved in 1 1/2 mponths ago and have sprayed the exteriior and interior of the house as well. I am at my wits end with them. Any suggestions on how to keep them off and out of my car would be helpful I would prefer an method that would prevent them from coming back again. I have heard that many people are having problems because of the drought.
