Judie moved some house plants out side because they were bug infested. They were placed near the patio door.
She was on the patio and heard a scratching noise. She figured it was Fritz and went toward the gutter, one of the favorite places for the little lizards to repose. Nope not in the gutter, and she heard the noise again.
She narrowed it down to the flower pot with the large leafed plant (a gift, I believe from our house keeper). Sure enough Fritz (or Fritzina) was trapped in the pot. She could not get traction on the side of the very slick pot. So Judie, very carefully, lifted the plant and moved the pot to the edge of the patio. She tilted the pot over on its side and out scooted Fritz ~ free at last.
The lizards have a habit of spending the night in the flower pots. I guess Fritz chose the wrong one.
We have seen them in the spring cozy up in Judie's yard shoes. They are black, water proof and just right. They soak up the heat and thus it is an ideal location for the early spring months. Safe from predators and warm to boot.
This time of year, no need for the heat. So they sneak into the flower pots as a safe haven.
Got to be careful of where you chose to be in a safe haven. It may be a trap.
