No, gecko lizards are not poisonous to humans. Most geckos are harmless and do not possess venom glands or produce toxic substances. They rely on their agility and ability to climb walls and ceilings to escape predators rather than using venom or toxins for defense. However, it is important to note that some larger species of geckos may bite if they feel threatened, but their bites are not poisonous.
