How many can live together as I have seen 13 together at one time. Also, can they damage or make my house smell because they are there?

Thanks,
Melanie

They are a native species. They eat all knd of bugs. They arent dirty or messy. Even the Cuban/Brown Anoles eat up roaches and bugs. Its just that they arent a native species. Ill take a Anole scurrying through my kitchen at night because I know they keep any roaches in check.

However the green anoles have been able to adapt at least for the time being. When brown anoles are present, native green anoles move vertically up in the habitat. This allows the lizards to partition the area and decrease competition. However, if there is nowhere in the habitat for the green anoles to move, they ultimately disappear from the area. And while brown anoles are known to prey on young green anoles, their more rapid reproduction may be giving the Cuban cousins another competitive advantage.
