ARE WALL GECKOS REALLY POISONOUS?

  Few days ago I got a shared post from a friend on the poisonous nature of Wall geckos. As usual I copied and shared in a Whatsapp group without any prior search. Not sooner than later had I dropped it that I got a striking question from another friend, any empirical evidence to support this?".  At first I felt why would one need evidence to support the widely accepted notion of the 'poisonous' nature of wall geckos.
