what do you need for a gecko?

[rowska]

Hey People,
I have just got back to Melbourne from QLD and when unpacking i noticed a gecko was in one of my shirts. I have a water dragon and 2 bearded dragons just wondering what stuff i need to look after this little guy.
Regards Brent

You can't keep wild animals. Let it go, and if you want to, legally obtain one.

*Edit*.

Hang on, you just got back from Melbourne from Queensland? Well, you can't keep it, and I don't think you'd be able to release incase it breeds with any population down there. If it's an Asian House Gecko, I imagine you'd be able to freeze it.

should release it back where you got it, but i spose that would be a bit hard if you back in melbourne...
