Hello! So I've been out of the country for about 3 weeks and I left my leo at the vet that I work at while I was away. His enclosure was in a loft of the clinic and a bunch of insects kept being drawn to his night light and got all around/in his tank. A friend's little brother was watching him who is very knowledgeable and has a bunch of geckos himself, and he even cleaned/scrubbed his entire enclosure while I was away :biggrin:
Buuuut I've since returned home and brought him with me, and 3 days later I'm still finding little insects in his enclosure and I'm a little concerned that they might be something bad or harmful. He has tile substrate and a warm moist hide with moss in it, so I wiped down the tile and replaced the moss. This might be just one bug that I happened to find but I want to be sure it's not something bad! It's really tiny (about a millimeter long) and gray, and it obviously had wings since it's an insect. So I smashed it and I'll attach a photo of it, so if you happen to recognize it I would really appreciate the help!
