Lizards are opportunistic. Gardens, ponds and streams allow populations to prosper. Sprinkler systems will deliver enough water to keep any lizard happy and this leads to many taking up residence along outside foundation walls. Most species of lizards in North America are harmless and eat small insects. Vegetation such as shrubs and flowers are excellent nesting areas for many types. These same plants can become a target for lizards that will find them to be a great source of water during dry spells or in arid regions when water is sparse.

Here is a short clip of the common Chameleon found in many regions of the world.



Here is another Chameleon but this one turns brown.



LIZARD CONTROL

Controlling lizards is easy. First you should take away their food by doing a little pest control around the house. Next you should set out some repellent granules or repellent spray and lastly, consider setting out lizard traps if they’re inside the home.

 

FIRST, REDUCE LIZARD FOOD BY SPRAYING THE YARD

The first thing you can do is to reduce lizard food. In fact our MAXXTHOR EC sprayed on the house siding and ground will not only kill the food they’re eating but often times the Maxxthor itself will irritate them enough to drive them away. So if you know you have an insect issue that’s attracting the lizards, using just the Maxxthor might solve the problem.

For large areas, our 6 GALLON HOSE END is ideal for two reasons. It can saturate the homes siding and ground using nothing but your garden hose so the task is super fast. Second, you can remove the little black “deflector” on the tip and then it shoots a straight line spray that can reach as high as your garden hose can spray. Ideal for high places like eaves and overhangs where lizards like to rest.

NEXT, APPLY LIZARD SPRAY ONTO THE HOME

Now if you just want to chase away the Lizards off the house, the best option is PEST AWAY SPRAY.

It won’t kill anything but lizards hate its odor and will immediately leave the treated area. Pest Away is ideal for Lizards foraging on the side of homes, around windows, on decks and in the garden.

Pest Away uses essential oils at a very high concentrate which isn’t “normal” in the wild. When lizards detect it this strong AND it overwhelms their sense of smell, they feel like they need to move on and will leave your property.

Mix 2-4 oz per gallon of water and apply it with a good pump sprayer like the one listed above. One mixed gallon will cover up to 800 sq/ft and you get 2-4 gallons of mixed spray per jug.

QTY

Treatments with Pest Away will last 30 days so plan on renewing treatments at least once a month during the active spring/summer/fall season.

LIZARD REPELLENT GRANULES

To get longer residual, first apply PEST-XEMPT G to the turf around the home as well as gardens, flower beds and along property borders. Xempt G uses all natural ingredients at a dose lizards do not like. They have a distinctive “wintergreen” aroma and will last 60 days per application. If you spray Pest Away over the granules, you’ll get 60-90 days of residual from treatments so you don’t have to spray as frequently.

Xempt G is packed 4 bags to a box; each baggie is .5 lbs and will cover up to 100 sq/ft.

BEST LIZARD TRAPS

Lastly, set out some baited LIZARD GLUE TRAPS. These are made for use inside the home and can be placed along baseboards, under furniture, on countertops or anywhere lizards are foraging. These traps are very effective at catching and holding common nuisance lizards. They include a wide range of insect pheromones and lizard food in the form of small pellets which are simply dropped onto the glue trap prior to setting the traps out. Use these inside the home if you have them in living space or outside in protected areas like garages, under decks, patios and porches out of direct rain.

      Nothing else is needed. Apply the Pest Away spray to where they’re active and you’ll chase them off within a few days. Reapply as needed to keep them away for good. Pest Away works great for water dragons.

      There is nothing that will kill them but we do have the lizard repellent spray. Basically you want the Pest Away Granules apply to the ground where you don’t want the lizards active.

      Xempt G: https://bugspray.com/exempt/granule/pest-xempt-granules-2-lb

      Next, you’ll spray over the top with the Pest Away.

      Do the treatment every month to insure they don’t come back. And for the first month or two, if you see them return sooner than one month, treat as needed.

      Absolutely. Pest Away is made from all natural ingredients and because these ingredients are used, they fall into a group of products which the federal government feels are so safe to use they don’t have to get any kind of special label or undergo the rigorous safety testing most all sprays must endure. Additionally, Pest Away is just a repellent and won’t hurt anything. That means even if your pet did ingest some, there would be no impact because the product is made with essential plant and food oils which can’t hurt mammals. This characteristic makes it ideally suited for use in sensitive areas or where pets and children might be active.

    My husband and I have a serious infestation of some type of ugly lizards. They are see through (you can see their organs) and they have black eyes. Some of them are brown but all of their tails are spotted and some of them even have little horns on the back of their heads. UGH!!! We cannot get rid of them! Yes we live on the water and we have a sprinkler system, but we have sprayed insect repellant and DEMON trying to kill their food source to no avail!! NOW…….they are getting in the house every where! I cannot handle this as I am deathly afraid of them! PLEASE HELP!

      Set out some of the Lizard Traps inside the home to collect any that forage inside.

      Lizard Traps: https://bugspray.com/traps/pheromone-and-food/scorpion-insect-lizard-15-pk

      Outside the home, apply Xempt Granules all the way around the home.

      Xempt G: https://bugspray.com/exempt/granule/pest-xempt-granules-2-lb

      Next, spray the foundation and ground over the granules with Pest Away.

      Pest Away: https://bugspray.com/exempt/liquid/pest-away

      Treat every 2 weeks till they’re gone. You should be able to force them off the property with the Pest Xempt as long as you apply it to every place you see them active as they’ll avoid the treatment.

      More information on these products can be read in our article above.

      If you review the article above, you’ll learn all you need to know about what to get and how to use it. Here is a brief summary.

      For inside, set out some Lizard traps.

      Lizard Traps: https://bugspray.com/traps/pheromone-and-food/scorpion-insect-lizard-15-pk

      Also spray cracks or crevices where they might be living or hiding. This won’t kill them but they don’t like the spray and will leave. This will either force them into the traps or back outside.

      FS MP Aerosol: https://bugspray.com/catalog/insecticide/aerosol/fs-mp-insecticide-15-oz-aerosol

      Next, set out some Xempt G around the outside of the home.

      Xempt G: https://bugspray.com/exempt/granule/pest-xempt-granules-2-lb

      Lastly, spray the exterior foundation of the home with Pest Away Spray.

      I’m sure we can help you manage this activity before it gets worse. For starters, I suggest you review our article above. As you’ll learn, taking away the lizards food supply is key to keeping them off and away from any structure. So with that being understood, you should make sure the structure is being sprayed on the outside exterior since this is where insects and then lizards will first appear. This should be done monthly with something like the Maxxthor listed above. By keeping them off the exterior of the building you’ll be preventing them from getting inside which ultimately is the goal.

      Maxxthor: https://bugspray.com/catalog/insecticide/liquid/maxxthor-ec

      Next, if you have mulch areas, flower beds or “gardens” like you mention in your comment, then they too should be treated with the Maxxthor. It’s plant safe and will control various insects on which lizards like to feed.

      Next, applying Xempt Granules around the structure should be done. These should be used on the ground, in flower beds, mulch areas, etc. and replaced monthly.

      Xempt G: https://bugspray.com/exempt/granule/pest-xempt-granules-2-lb

      Now inside the structure you should set out some Lizard Traps to help monitor the local activity. These can be discretely placed in areas where patrons won’t see them but where you’ll be able to watch them daily to see if they’re catching anything. Typically what we find once these are installed is that lizards will start showing up in areas previously not thought to have a problem. And once these areas are located you’ll then be able to focus treatments on them to get rid of the source or common nest site.

      If you need further help on how to best proceed, give us a call toll free at 1-800-877-7290 and I’m sure we’ll be able to clarify any part of the process so you can manage this problem and keep the lizards away.

      If you review our Ant Control article, you’ll learn that treating outside with Maxxthor is one of the main things you’ll need to do to keep them out of the home. And if you follow this suggestion, the lizards will no doubt mostly leave.

      This is because lizards routinely nest around homes which have a lot of insects so by reducing their food, they’ll be forced to move elsewhere. And the Maxxthor will readily kill and control ants, roaches and many other pests lizards love. Take away these insects and the lizards will have to relocate.

I WAS JUST OUTSIDE WATERING MY FLOWERING PLANTS IN POTS AND SAW TWO (2) RUN OUT FROM THEM. THEY ARE SOOOOO UGLY LOOKING I CANNOT STAND THEM. WE NEVER HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THESE UNTIL ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO. I STARTED NOTICING MY BEAUTIFUL FLOWERING PLANTS IN MY POTS START TO DIE WITHIN A FEW DAYS. ARE THE PRODUCTS (SPRAYS) O.K. TO APPLY DIRECTLY TO THE PLANTS IN MY POTS OR JUST ON THE CONCRETE AND GROUND AROUND THEM??????? I FEEL AFTER READING ABOVE IT IS DUE TO THEM FEEDING OFF OF A HUGE ANT POPULATION. WE HAVE HAD THEM BAD FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS AS WELL. I AM DEFINITELY GOING TO PURCHASE SOME OF THE PRODUCTS LISTED ABOVE AND PRAY THEY REALLY WORK AND WELL!!!!

      This problem can definitely be solved. Get the Maxxthor listed above. Add 1/2 oz of the Maxxthor per gallon of water and using nothing more than any plant watering can, pour the mixed solution into all your plant pots like you would when you water them. The mixture will serve as water for the day (use this solution as water for the day) but the added Maxxthor will kill any ants or other insects the lizards are eating.

      Maxxthor: https://bugspray.com/catalog/insecticide/liquid/maxxthor-ec

      Within 1-2 days of this treatment, the lizards will start to realize their local food supply is no longer present and most will be forced to move away.

      Now if you have insects living adjacent to the plant pots, treat these areas with the Maxxthor too. Maxxthor is a lot stronger of the two sprays and normally what I’d recommend to kill off local insects but it can be a bit too strong for use in plant pots. But what is gentle and safe is the Maxxthor so go with this option for the plant pots and local area to control the ants and any other insects in the area.

      Lastly, after the Maxxthor is applied to the potted plants and local area around the plants, let the treatments be for 3-4 days to take full effect. After that time you can start applying the Pest Away to make sure the lizards and insects stay away for good. Apply Xempt G and Pest Away Spray every 1-2 months this should keep the problem in check and prevent it from happening again.

    What if you have lizards coming in through the fireplace? Can you spray or place products there if eventually you will use the fireplace? Will it cause fumes that will harm if burned off? Can there be a nest, because I have seen more than one at a time in the home near the fireplace? What do you suggest for this problem?

      June 19, 2013 at 12:22 pm

      Lizards will routinely forage around gutters on most any roof which means they can eventually get close to fireplace flues and chimneys. And once they locate a fireplace where they can get inside, they will many times find the location ideal for roosting. It’s out of the weather, warm and dark – exactly the kind of location they need.

      From there it’s just a matter of time before they start coming down the exhaust pipe and making themselves visible in living spaces. Fortunately these situations are usually easy to treat.

      In fact none of our pesticide products pose any kind of hazard when applied properly in these areas where flames may be present some time in the future. This is true for a few reasons.

      First, the fire fumes are way more toxic and caustic compared to any mixed solution that might be sprayed in these areas. In fact, this is why fire smoke is always routed out of homes. And once flowing out of the home, it means all the fumes would funnel out with the fireplace exhaust, smoke etc. as well so that people inside will never be exposed to anything toxic. And even if by chance the chimney didn’t work right, the smoke would be thousands of times more toxic causing a quick death and essentially making any fumes from something sprayed in there a mute point. Long story short; nothing sprayed or applied in this area will be a problem whether you decide to burn a fire in there some time in the future or not.

      Now since any properly functioning chimney will be routing exhaust up and out of the chimney, it means any of the repellents applied below will have their scent funnel up the flue as well. This is a good thing because the net impact of the fumes will be to repel lizards in the area.

      So for starters, the best way to start treating would be to apply Pest Xempt G in the middle of the fireplace followed up by spraying Pest Away over the surfaces where they’ve been seen active inside the fireplace.

      Lastly, keep the flue open so the scent funnels up and out of the chimney which in turn will chase them away even further.

      Expect to see a good month of protection per application and after you can go 2-3 weeks without seeing any lizards, going outside and start treating the roof area around the chimney to help clear them away even more. This will make it less likely of any getting inside again.

      If you review the article above, you’ll find your answer. For now, start with the Pest Xempt Granules and Pest Away Spray. Basically apply the granules along all the areas where you see them active.

      Next, spray over the top of the granules with the Pest Away Spray and then also spray the side of the home adjacent to where you apply the granules. This will both repel them from the area and keep them away for a month or more per treatment.

    We recently moved into an apartment and after about a month realized that there are little clear lizards which come out every night when the porch light comes on. I absolutely hate lizards. We live upstairs so when I have to come home after dark I have the hardest time coming upstairs to get in the house because the lizards are on the ceiling and sides of the walls. It doesn’t seem like the Pest Xempt Granules will work since we don’t have a yard but I am purchasing the Maxxthor and Pest Away Spray and hoping they will work. I found one in the apartment last night that came in from the patio when I opened the door to let the dog go out there about a week ago. Unfortunately my husband wasn’t home so I was forced to kill it myself. Fortunately it was a baby so it was little but I don’t like them no matter how big or small they are. I will come back and post how the products work once we’ve been using them for a couple of weeks. I am hoping that when it gets cold they will go away.

      It sounds like given where you are seeing the lizards, you purchased the right products. Just make sure to spray all the areas where you’re seeing them. Also, don’t stop there. Treat the surrounding areas around the porch too – especially close to the ground – since they could be coming from some plants in the area.

      Lastly, don’t forget the patio, around the door coming off the patio, etc. These are all key areas. Keeping them away from any route of entry into your living space will make it less likely you find any inside.

      Lastly, if you keep finding some inside, our Lizard Traps can really help. They work great, last several months and are easy to deploy. You’d want to place these around any route of entry like doors, windows, etc. where you know they’re living or nesting outside the apartment.

    Hello,

    We just moved into our new home in Orange County and we’re very excited to use our backyard. However, we noticed there are so many black lizards outside. We have a Koi pond and a small pool. We also have hydrangeas that look like they’re dying and I have seen couple of lizards around them. Please let me know what treatments I need to use to get rid of these lizards? Thanks.

      If you review our article above, you’ll notice there are traps, sprays and repellents. In most cases, the repellents will do the job. And if the lizards are only outside, this is what you should use to start.

      So for now, get some Pest Xempt Granules and Pest Away Spray.

      First, apply the Pest Xempt Granules over any ground where you see these lizards moving, hiding or foraging. Next, spray over these same areas with the Pest Away Spray. Pest Away is a strong repellent that works on reptiles like lizards and snakes and will chase them away from any treated area within a day or two. But this means you may need to treat more than just the areas where they’re active to insure they don’t move from one part of the yard to another.

      For example, you don’t want them moving onto your home. So if any of these areas are close to the house, spraying the siding on your home would be smart. You don’t have to spray the whole side of the house but a band of spray around 1-2 feet wide just up off the ground may be required if they’re active close to the home.

      Lastly, Pest Away is all natural and won’t pose any kind of hazard to people, wildlife or aquatic life so your Koi will be safe with Pest Xempt around as will any family members.

    We have a colony of lizards that are digging out the sand under the pavers that support our hot tub. What would be the best way to have them leave?

      Mark,

      The Pest Away repellent listed above will probably do the job. First, apply the granules to the areas you want to protect. One pound will cover up to 250 sq/ft. Next, spray the liquid Pest Away over the granules. This will get them to stop and treatments should last 1-2 months.

      For a more permanent solution, install one of our Ground Stake Repellers. We’re getting good results using these in the yard to stop invading snakes, lizards and frogs.
