Hemidactylus, commonly known as house geckos, are not considered poisonous. They possess no venomous glands or toxic substances. While they may exhibit defensive behaviors or produce unpleasant secretions when threatened, these adaptations are not classified as poisonous. Instead, these geckos primarily rely on camouflage and speed for protection.
The house lizard belongs to the following taxonomic classification: Kingdom Animalia, Phylum Chordata, Class Reptilia, Order Squamata, Family Gekkonidae, Genus Hemidactylus, and Species Hemidactylus frenatus. Commonly known as the common house gecko, it is widely found in tropical and subtropical regions around the world.
Depends on what you're referring to as a 'house lizard', most likely you mean either a Green Anole (Anolis carolinensis), or a 'House Gecko' which is a common name for the entire genus Hemidactylus.

Geko, a genus of lizards, is primarily found in tropical and subtropical regions around the world, with a significant presence in areas like Southeast Asia, Africa, and the Pacific Islands. The term "gecko" can also refer to specific species, such as the common house gecko (Hemidactylus frenatus), which is widely distributed due to its adaptability to human environments. They are known for their distinctive vocalizations and ability to climb smooth surfaces.
One example of an animal that is around 8 cm long is the common house gecko (Hemidactylus frenatus). This small lizard typically measures between 7.5 to 15 cm, with many individuals falling close to the 8 cm mark. They are often found in and around human dwellings, where they hunt insects. Other examples at this length include certain species of small frogs and fish.
The brown lizard that has invaded some areas of Florida is the Mediterranean gecko, also known as the common house gecko (Hemidactylus turcicus). This non-native species is often found in urban environments and is known for its adaptability and ability to thrive in various habitats. Its presence can disrupt local ecosystems and compete with native lizard species. The Mediterranean gecko is recognizable by its brownish coloration and distinctive vocalizations.
