Hi All

I hope someone can assist. Yesterday a Gecko/Lizard was discovered inside one of our shipping containers which has travelled from Italy. Miraculously it has survived its journey. After a little internet search we believe it’s a common wall Gecko. Can anyone advise if there is a process that must be followed in relation to foreign species entering the country? And should it be taken anywhere special? Its the first time we have discovered anything live.
Last year we came across a scorpion!! Thankfully it was very much dead and out pest Control Company where able to remove/deal with it as it was dead.

Please help

I didn't find the right solution from the internet.
