I found a little lizard in my apt in Plano, TX. Its flesh colored, 2 to 3 inches long with tail. What is it?

Answers:
salamander

It is a gecko!! They are the best things to have out of your windows. They eat the spiders and little bugs that tend to stay on window and corners of doors.

Probably a Mediterranean Gecko - they're an introduced species that flourishes in North Texas.

I relocated one earlier this week from our bedroom (he was hanging out on the bed.) and put him outside. I wouldn't mind having them in the house, I just worry that our dog will try to eat them.

I also think it sounds like a gecko.

A geck or a whiptail lizard. Either way, it's harmless.
