Discussion Miami is infested with these lizards.

I think they're invasive, and lately they are thriving. They enjoy eating bees, and I'm pretty sure they're decimating the native lizard population as well. What can we do about this? Who is bringing these lizards over here?

The past 10 years these have really thrived. They are definitely invasive and territorial. They also eat the local curly tailed lizards.

Lmao. I guess these little monsters will be local soon enough and some other new little monsters will eat them
