Lizard

I have a new resident in my bedroom. I found him yesterday, in the corner of the room just inside the back door. He's got quite a lengthy tail. I was dog-sitting at the time, so in addition to my two I had my friend's Chihuahua-Dachshund mix, Bella. She's just a puppy, at under a year. She was playing with every toy in the house, all at once, so I can't imagine what she'd have done if she had discovered this intruder. I opted to shoo him out the door with a broom. Then I ran for my camera!

What would you have done with a lizard? Any suggestions of deterrents? Leave me a comment on my blog if you have any ideas for me.
