At least I think it still is; I haven't seen it again. It's NOT a salamander, as I originally thought, but a skink!

Five-lined Skinks help control insect pest populations. They are often seen climbing walls and shutters of houses looking for insects.
See? They're good things.

I've never even heard of a skink, but I certainly wouldn't want one running loose in my house. I wonder how you get rid of them.
