    I have one more suggestion, Try keeping empty egg shell. But you need to keep on changing the egg shell as it drys & doesn't effect.

    It works till some extent. Can't we just kill them as we kill roaches???:idea

    Hi,

    Don't go for sticky patch, more than the ghastly site the poor creature will feel lot of pain. I am sacred of lizards too but just because I am scared does not mean I go ahead and hurt the creature.

    Here are few things that work.

    1. Egg shells should have little yolk inside them, and they need to be replaced. The reason why lizards are afraid of the shells is because they smell the birds around and hence don't come near it. For one large room, 1 small shell will not work. You will need to put shells in different places (where the lizards reside).

    2. Try to seal the places where lizards come in. If you have an open window then use a thin mental sheet to cover it. A carpenter will advise you on this. Same goes for cracks and open sides through which lizards come in.

    Hope this helps.

    Have a great day ahead.

    regards
