Are geckos welcome guests in Hawaii?

Two things inspired this post:
1) I’ve been asked by several clients why the "gecko" is popular in Hawaii and not seen as a pest
2) I saw a beautiful gecko at Dole Pineapple Plantation and I wanted to show him off…





Most homes in Hawaii welcome geckos, because they eat insects like ants, mosquitos and roaches. Geckos are very vocal creatures. They make a clicking sound that sounds almost like a person saying, “Tsk, tsk, tsk”, which can be heard at night. They also make repeated chirping sounds at times. Here in Hawaii, the occasional gecko poop and strange night sounds are well worth the service the gecko performs by eating household insects.

Here are some photos of the gecko that I saw cruising in the pineapple patch… I love the way he has the zigzag pattern on his back that seems to match the jagged edged pattern on the pineapple plant leaves.
