Should I Be Worried About This Wall Gecko (picture) by Questionnairae(op): 11:02am On May 11, 2025
A month ago I had a female visitor.
Around midnight, she alerted me about a wall Gecko outside of my bedroom window net.
She claimed wall Geckoes are agents of witchcraft to monitor people.
I simply dismissed this, saying the Gecko was on the window probably to eat insects.

She knocked the Gecko off the net.
The following night around same time, she alerted me again that the Gecko was back at the net, and said I should kill it.
I simply replied I would not go outside by that time of the night just to kill a Gecko.

She unlocked the door and went outside with a broom to kill the Gecko. She hit at the Gecko and shouted that the Gecko disappeared. I was watching from inside and told her she didn't quite strike her target, that it fell down. She searched but didn't find the Gecko.

This was a month ago.
Last night I woke up to find same Gecko same place on my window. Infact for some days now, the Gecko has always shown up on the window at night.
I observed it for a while. Some eerie thoughts actually came to my mind but couldn't convince myself that there is anything evil about this Gecko to warrant my stressing myself to go out and attempt killing it.
Yes, I have had my fair share of life's misfortunes but I can't hold a Gecko responsible for my woes.
Should I be Worried about this Gecko?
Are Geckoes really agents of witchcraft?

In some places and cultures I know of...


Wall gekos are home protectors and watchers.

They aren't killed.

I have never really bothered about geckos.

I moved recently to a new place. The wall geckos are plenty.

It's the first time I ever really thought of doing something about them!

I don't give a damn about the spiritual side, I just hate geckos naturally. Infact I hate all reptiles... Whenever I see a wall gecko I make sure I kill it, they irritate me.

Sacrifice the gecko whether it's innocemt pr guilty... At least, that will save you from all these mental awareness and inner ponderings.

But that will make me start hunting down all Geckos, and maybe later graduate to hunting down rats, cockroaches...

Geckos are territorial and sneaky,she didn't strike it well to kill it.They are usually very fast and it must have evaded her.

Nothing to worry about.Just get a potent insecticide to eliminate it.

What I hate most about them is their poo.

Kill it.

Geckos help you to eliminate mosquitoes and other tiny insects. Associating innocent animals with spiritual mumbo jumbo is a sign that your brain has been washed free of sense.
Re: Should I Be Worried About This Wall Gecko (picture) by haybhi1(m):
If you kill them, I bet you'll see an overwhelming swell in the rate of cockroaches and spiders roaming in your room, annoyingly.

Leaving it is better. Doesn't affect you, you don't affect it. If you don't believe me, please kill it. Just remember to find and update this thread of your newfound cockroaches and spiders visitors after.
Re: Should I Be Worried About This Wall Gecko (picture) by haybhi1(m): 2:07pm On May 11, 2025
It'll terrify you more to see a sea of cockroaches than it will just this wall gecko.

You've allowed agent of darkness into your space. Not the gecko but the woman or whatever spirit working inside her.

The mission is simple. Induce fear! And your defence will be fragile. Kill the gecko if it will give you peace but more than that, you need to renew your mind to disparate fear.

Nothing good can come out of fear.

There's nothing to fear about walgecho, God did not create any animal to be evil aside snake which is the most hated animal in this world. No animal is created evil

I hate geckos terribly and have heard negative things about them. I kill them when given the opportunity! Geckos, mosquitoes, rats, cockroach etc are all crazy!

I generally thinks these things are synonymous with poverty. Personal opinion though!
Re: Should I Be Worried About This Wall Gecko (picture) by Wisewriter: 6:01pm On May 11, 2025
This is a real monitoring spirit. Be spiritually and physically prepared
Re: Should I Be Worried About This Wall Gecko (picture) by Wisewriter: 6:01pm On May 11, 2025
Some doubters will claim it is nothing. Let me buttress this point; Witchcraft metamohpses to wall gecko to bewitch people at night,
I have been fighting this battle lately to a new place I packed new. Infact last 2days while I was praying one fel untop of my body and disappear. The next morning I noticed a mark on my kid's body.

Evil people work with it, it is not a fallacy. What u dnt know is bigger than u. If ur not too spiritual, get crude oil or mmanu ojukwu, it scares evil people away

spiritually, wall geckos are bad
religiously, wall geckos should be gotten rid of

That's a good nutrient. Meat is expensive in the market now.

Just kill gecko and have peace on mind.

:Omonile angry

They cannot be totally eradicated. I remembered my best efforts to rid my apartment of wall geckos and even created a topic on suggestions of ways to get rid of them. I’ve used different insecticides and other suggested methods, but they appear to disappear and reappear. If you kill one today, you will still see another one tomorrow.

You should be worried about the girl, not the gecko. Are u a believer? the gods are dead.
Re: Should I Be Worried About This Wall Gecko (picture) by Enddy50ty(m): 6:05pm On May 11, 2025
Kill it
Re: Should I Be Worried About This Wall Gecko (picture) by princepee: 6:05pm On May 11, 2025
cool sincerely if it's outside your house let it be.
Anybody monitoring from outside is a coward
If it comes into the house kill it because they are poisonous and dirty.

They play a good role in your home cause they help eliminate those little critters…
