Majority of calls we receive these days in our Delhi and Gurgaon office concern the sudden increase in number of lizards at homes. We all know that lizards help in keeping our homes Pest free , but we still don’t relish their sight in our homes. We all make efforts to keep our house lizard free.

So here we try to list some measures which can help us keep our homes Lizards-free.

  1. Keep your house and it’s surroundings clean. An unclean house attracts all sorts of Insects including lizards by providing  them food and shelter .
  2. Keep clear gap between walls and furniture for regular cleaning and denying any hiding places to lizards. Any hanging picture must be tightly flushed against the walls so that no gap is left between wall and pictures.
  3. Fix any moisture source present in the house.
  4. Seal the openings between wall and wood or between Wood and floor with the help of sealants.
  5. Screens all the windows so that no gap is allowed from where lizards can access your house.
  6. If  crack or opening between wall floor junction  or wall wood junction must be repaired properly to prevent their entry.

With all these measures in place, if lizards still manage to get into your premise , then here we suggest some eco-friendly and non-toxic remedial measures to repel lizards which are safe for your children , pests and living environment of your house.

Lizards assume that the premise is already occupied by some predator  and tend to leave your house within no matter of time. These egg shells must be replaced every 4-6 weeks and their place must also be changed. It is one of the effective methods to get rid of lizards at home without killing them or harming them.

V.  Pepper water mixture:  Mixture of pepper and water works well for repelling lizards as it has the properties of nerve irritant. This pepper powder and water mixture has some insecticidal property which irritates and repell lizards . Sprinkle this mixture in your kitchen racks, behind tube lights, behind curtains and main electric supply box.

 

VI. Ice-cold Water: If you can manage to Spray some ice-cold water on the body of the  lizard, It reduce their body temperature, and immobilize them temproarily. They can then be trapped under a cardboard box and can be disposed off easily.
