Anole season

Hello, I’m Amanda McNulty with Clemson Extension and Making It Grow. There are lots of reasons to get down on my hands and knees, which gets harder every year. I purposefully put on my tennis shoes sitting on the floor, hoping to stay agile, and also find myself crawling around trying to catch green anoles, those little green lizards that often sun themselves on the porch railings, that have gotten inside the house. If it’s cold, they’re much easier to catch. When it’s warm, you have to try to get them in corner or such before they run and hide somewhere inaccessible. They’re often on the upstairs curtains (I don’t know if they walked up the stairs or not) or on one of the living room window sills. Not too long ago one was on the bedspread over Edward’s stomach. I guess it was a warm spot!
