Ahhhh the Gueko's we have thousands of them. Alot of people are very frightened of them. However it appears your guests had a exit strategy.
DH's brother came out from the UK and stayed up all night for his first night. He freaked out that if he were to drift off to sleep they would drop from the ceiling onto him. Thank goodness he didnt start attacking them. There would have been drop tails everywhere.
I get calls asking "Do you have Gueko's" ? Ummm Tropical Australia yes we do. Not sure what sanitised box they intend staying at.
I have metal brightly coloured Gueko Sculptures around the outside of our property. These are harmless..

I spent a week in a rain forest resort in eastern Ecuador a few years ago. There were about 20 guests there, including a newly wed twenty-something couple (quite a honeymoon!).
The first night several of us were standing at the bar when a tarantula dropped from a beam above and landed on the shoulder of the young groom. He was very cool about it, didn't even spill his beer! The bartender just said, "Think nothing of it. Happens all the time."
They warned us that there may be crawling visitors in our rooms at night, and to wear our shoes, after carefully checking inside them, if we got up in the night. You go to the rain forest, what do you expect!
