Well, I can understand your fears. I used to be afraid of insects as well. Due to this fear, my parents bought field guides which introduced me to insects by proxy. I learned about their biology & the unique functions they have in our ecosystem.
I then started to look at insects at a distance & eventually got enough courage to touch them. My fear left me at that instant.
If you can not get over this problem. You should give your geckos & frogs to someone who can provide living food such as crickets & other arthropods to them, as this is one of their main dietary requirements.
Below is a link to a site that specializes in over-coming this phobia. Hopefully, this will help you.

If you can't handle crickets maybe you could feed them superworms in a little container or with tongs.
