Lizard menace

In yesterday's post, I shared my uncomfortable life with lizards in my house. This evening as I stepped in to my living room, I saw a 6 cm long lizard running past toward the back of the inverter placed at one corner. Immediately I opened the main door and the mosquito mesh door attached to it, as these were very near the cornered inverter. I took a long plastic broom and luckily let the lizard get out of my house. Honestly, I  felt like I 'achieved' something significant. I hope that the creature finds comfort outside and that there are no lizards in my house any more. 

I am not against lizards. However, like many people, I don't relish lizards' company in my house. That's all.
