SALAMANDER IN MOSSSalamanders are cold blooded amphibians that typically live around ponds, rivers and streams. They live throughout North America and depending on the species, may live in the water or on land close to a good supply of moisture.

Gardens, ponds and streams will be where they naturally want to live but since salamanders feed on insects, they will go where food is present. So if you water your lawn and don’t do pest control around the home’s exterior, salamanders could very well find your property inviting for food and shelter.

SALAMANDER EGG SAC ON GRASS
SALAMANDER EGG SAC

Once in the yard, they’ll nest under mulch, pine straw, rocks, bricks, patio slabs and basically anywhere its dark, moist and protected. Females will lay egg sacs on moist vegetation like ground cover, grass or perennials. These egg sacs will be “jelly fish like” in size and texture. But inside the gel you’ll notice the small eggs. And they’ll be attached to the plant, close to the ground.

The picture to the left shows the egg sac attached to a blade of grass which is commonly used for egg laying.


SALAMANDER CONTROL

Controlling salamanders is easy. First you should take away their food by doing a little pest control around the exterior of the house. This will usually get them to move away. Without food, there will be no reason for them to stay around.

You should also set out some Salamander repellent granules and Salamander repellent spray. Lastly, if they’re active inside the home, set out some traps.

 

YARD SPRAY FOR SALAMANDER FOOD 

So the first thing you can try is to reduce salamander food around the exterior of the home. A good insect supply is no doubt the main reason they’re choosing your home for a nest site. So if you take away their food, they will often times leave your property.

To reduce salamander food on plants, the lawn, shrubs and the house, treat the foundation and landscape with CYONARA RTS. This product hooks to your garden hose and uses the water from the hose to mix with the concentrate inside. It’s odorless and even labeled for use on vegetable gardens. One quart will cover up to 1/2 acre and should be used 2-3 times a year to keep perimeter pests in check.

BEST SALAMANDER SPRAY

There is no spray that will kill salamanders but we do have two options that will effectively chase them away.

SALAMANDER REPELLENT TREATMENTS

If you have Salamanders in your mulch, around patio slabs, walkways or against the homes foundation, treat the area with XEMPT GRANULES.

SALAMANDER REPELLENT GRANULES

Xempt G uses all natural ingredients at a concentrated level salamanders do not like. They have a distinctive “wintergreen” aroma and will last up to 30-60 days per application. And if you spray PEST AWAY (see below) over the top of them, you’ll get 60-90 days of residual.

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

SALAMANDER REPELLENT SPRAY

Now if the salamanders are on the home’s siding, you’ll be better served with PEST AWAY SPRAY.

Pest Away is made with all natural organic essential oils and gets mixed with water. It won’t harm wildlife, insects, birds, pets, etc. but due to it being so concentrated, it makes salamanders “wary” of treated areas. Treatments on the homes siding will last up to 30 days and it won’t stain or leave a visible residue.

Pest Away works by making salamanders feel overwhelmed by the scent so they can’t monitor their surroundings efficiently. This makes them more vulnerable to predators causing them leave. This makes Pest Away a great way to naturally repel unwanted pesky animals like snakes, lizards and other amphibians and reptiles.

Our 8 oz jar mixes 2 oz per gallon of water and will treat up to 500 sq/ft of plants when treating for salamander control. And use the same amount over Xempt Granules if you want to get extended protection that can last 60-90 days.

Be sure to spray the sides of the home too behind gutters, downspouts, shutters, electric boxes and other areas you know salamanders like to hide.

You’ll need a good sprayer to apply the Pest Away and our ELIMINATOR can do the job well. It can reach up 15 feet or more so if they’re up in your gutters, you’ll be able to knock them out with one treatment.

SALAMANDER TRAPS

Lastly, set out some roach scented SALAMANDER GLUE TRAPS. These are ideal for inside the home and can be placed along baseboards, under furniture, on countertops or any place where you’ve seen salamanders foraging. These traps are very effective at catching and holding most common nuisance salamanders and lizards. The roach pheromones are in the form of small pills which are simply dropped onto the glue trap. Undetectable by people but quickly found by foraging salamanders, these boards can be used to trap out local populations without having to use any spray inside.

Salamanders are generally harmless and like to be left alone. But once they start living around your home they can become a pest. Reducing local insect populations are a pest that will find their way into yards which have an abundant supply of insect pests. They like to live close to their food and once they start nesting in your yard, it’s only a matter of time before they start coming inside.

If you’re seeing lizards around the yard, treat foundations and landscape with Pest Away. In most cases, it will chase lizards away and keep them off your property.

      Salamanders will readily forage around the landscape looking for food and shelter. So if you keep your car outside in an open area, you should treat the surrounding ground with the Pest Away featured above in our article.

      The spray should be applied to any turf in the area like grass, mulch, etc. and renewed monthly to keep out lizards, salamanders, snakes and other nuisance pests away from your car so there will no chance of any getting inside.

      Next, set out 4-6 Salamander Traps in the car. Typically the traps should be placed on the floor, under your seats, etc. The lure in the traps will attract hungry lizards or salamanders and once they enter, they’ll get stuck on the glue so you can easily remove them from your car.

      Here are links to these items in our cart.

    I rented a second floor condo in Fl. and like to keep the back sliding doors open. The patio is all screened in and there is a 6 inch seperation between screen and doors. The neighbors tell me that I will be getting geckos in the house. I see droppings in the tracks so they must be right. What can I put in or spray the tracks with to deter them from entering the house? There is also a lake in the back.

      Judy,

      This is an easy one. Get the Pest Away spray discussed in the article above. Simply spray it onto any surface where you don’t want them active. In this case, I’d spray the tracks as well as a perimeter of the deck. This way you should be able to keep them off the decking for good. Expect to spray once a month to keep them away for good.

    I have a dog and live in an apartment. My dog loves to lay outside in the grass. Last fall, I had a few salamanders inside and want to GET RID OF THEM BEFORE THEY COME AGAIN. On our apartment property we have a nearby wetland with cat-tails and am thinking that is where they originate, but I don’t want them on my property. I do not have access to an outside garden hose. I think I can spray around the base and entry of my apartment and on the lawn portion, but don’t want my dog to get sick…of course.

    Please send a message to me as to what you would recommend.

      Pat,

      Get the Pest Away listed above.

      The treatment will get them to leave and stay away for 3-4 weeks.

      Trish,

      Salamanders, like many insects and animals, will move in alongside foundation walls where they will find warmth and comfort. From there, some can find their way inside via drain lines, french drains, water pipes, overflow vents, cracks around basement windows or through the foundation.

      To stop them from entering, apply the Pest Away. It will keep them off the foundation which in turn will keep them from entering.
