I think I'm leveling up in #solarpunk: a young gecko is now helping me with mosquito problems by jumping on me to snag any tasty mosquitos that may be circling my skin.

This is the kind of cross-species teamwork I'm here for!

It jumped on me yesterday, and jumped on me again this morning (it seems to hang out around my desk). If I stay real still and calm, and act like it's not there, hopefully it'll keep coming back, and keep mosquitoes away from me 😘

(FYI, this is a gold dust day gecko, very common here on hawai'i island)
