Recommend avoid some parts of the City of Angels

Check out Bangkok on Twitter and you get a snout full of Tuesdays demonstration encounters. 

You don't want to be in downtown city of angels, not even as a delivery driver. สกลนคร Sakon Nakhon

Why I don't like geckos in the house

Gecko, lizards, toads, salamanders and frogs frequently carry bacteria called Salmonella that can cause serious illness in people. 

Geckos and other reptiles can also carry fleas ticks and mites. 

I don't mind them outside the house where they keep the mosquito population down. 

Inside, especially in the kitchen, I've learned to catch them with a large bowl and take them outside. 

Don't leave any food uncovered. They might not eat it, but most likely check it out and walk over it.

Then there is Gecko Poop which contains salmonella and can remain on walls and just about anywhere else. Resembles the shape of black rice.
