Wow. Thanks for the suggestions guys. I really appreciate it!
To answer some questions: No I dont remove the geckos to feed them. I put the crickets or worms in a dish and they eat from that. I remove the crickets legs as my Leo's are lazy! I catch my crickets with salad tongs and put them in a tub and then remove legs carefully with a teaspoon (I'm a real ninny when it comes to goggo's with legs!). I agree that a varied diet is best. I have decided to carry on feeding crickets. After all, my gecko's health is way more important than my phobias!
Thanks again for all the suggestions.
