The Back Story:
Geckos In Paradise
Most Hawaiian residents consider themselves lucky to have a gecko or two in their lives. These friendly little lizards are harmless, fun to watch and have long been a symbol of good luck in Hawaiian culture.
Although geckos are common in warm climates around the world, only eight species live in Hawaii. Microscopic suction-cups on their toe pads enable them to run easily across windows and ceilings. Like all lizards, they can lose their tail to escape capture and then regenerate it.
Their name comes from the chattering sounds geckos make as they dart about seeking the mosquitoes and other bugs on which they feast, earning their reputation as an effective and unobtrusive method of pest control.
