I use slate tiles and carpet with a little sand around the edge, I think its inside my wood :s

maybe kill it by washing the wood with water( drowning it). Oh and say a prayer for it.

Good thinking lol

Hehe all you need is a brain and imagination and BAM!!!

Two options: put a hungry gecko in to eat it! The louder it chirps, the faster it will get eaten. Or, put some food for it in (dry dog food or some greens/carrot), and then you should see it appear very soon and can take it out :main_laugh:
