The common household lizard, a house gecko, can sometimes be menacing. 

It causes distress to those who fear creepy crawlies. However, they can be pretty handy to have around, considering they eat the smaller insects such as moths, flies, and cockroaches. 

We guess if you have them in your home, you have to figure out which is more important to you. 

For those of you who want to remove them from your home without using a shoe, bug spray, a broom, or something hard to knock them out, we've found a fun way. This method doesn't involve letting your cat catch them, which can be harmful to your pet

A man shared a video showing how he led the gecko out of his home using a laser light. 

He used the red laser beam and projected it on the wall closest to the gecko, then began moving the laser. The lizard was intrigued and started following the laser.

One person said, "Where was this hack 24 years ago when I went to Pakistan? I was terrified of walking under the door if it dropped on me."

Others thanked the man for sharing a solution to a common household problem. 

What do you do when you see a gecko at home? The usual response is to run away from that particular room and leave it to the designated insect catcher...
