I had that problem when I lived in Miami - lizards eeek! Now that I've moved up to Ocala, I don't see any lizards but I'm even more freaked out by the many wasps and big spiders. Both of which manage to get into the house where I kill them with extreme prejudice. There was a snake in the yard yesterday...so now I'm paranoid about working in the yard. Guess I'm not good with wildlife!
He stabbed a bear to death that was trying to kill his dog.
