Well okay, so I want yet another pet lizard <3 I live in South East Asia, so Common House Geckos are the main lizards that you see here indoors. 

They stay on the walls, near the ceiling. How do I capture them? The ceiling is , yes, very high :c The height of one and one quarter of an average door.

I've had an experience with owning lizards before, but the previous one was surprisingly tame. Please include on how to catch and tame them.

Thanks!

I would suggest waiting for it to climb down to a wall. Use some kind of bait, whether a bug, or some apple or something. Use a jar to catch it, and slip some paper underneath so that you can pick it up. Get a nice cage, make sure you have enough food and water for it, along with plants and sticks for the cage, and be sure to keep it happy and very well fed. It should become more tame as it notices you are the one feeding it, etc.

When it climbs down the wall, it will just race up again xDD But good idea?
