Geckos on trees?
Probably a silly question, but are geckos bad? I've seen a few small baby ones on some of my figs. I gather they eat bugs etc, but yeah, thoughts?

Those little suction cup feet should feel like a massage to your figs? Probably good at encouraging trunk thickening too if you can get them to cut some laps just above the nebari!
Pretty sure geckos are in the welcome visitor category.
