Lizard Infestations: Understanding the Problem and Finding Solutions

Well, all of us have seen a lizard once in our lifetime. For some, it appears to be a harmless creature and for some, it is a very scary reptile! Lizards are a common infestation in most Indian households. The main point of a dilemma is - are they really harmful and how to prevent them. In this article, we will delve into the causes of lizard infestations, explore the potential risks they pose, and provide practical solutions to get rid of the lizards.


Understanding Lizard Infestations:

Environmental Factors:

Lizards are attracted to environments that provide them with ample food, shelter, and water sources. Factors such as warm climates, availability of insects, and suitable hiding places contribute to increased lizard activity. Therefore, regions with these characteristics are more prone to lizard infestations.

Structural Vulnerabilities:

Lizards can find their way into our homes through small cracks, gaps, or open windows and doors. Insufficient sealing around windows and improper screening of vents are common entry points for lizards. Identifying and rectifying such vulnerabilities is crucial to preventing infestations.


Risks Associated with Lizard Infestations:

While lizards themselves are generally harmless, their presence can lead to various issues:

Contamination:

Lizards can leave behind droppings or shed their skin, which may contaminate food preparation areas or cause allergic reactions in susceptible individuals.

Damage to Property:

Lizards may cause damage to property by gnawing on electrical wiring, furniture, or delicate items. It can result in potential safety hazards and costly repairs.

Traditional Solutions for Dealing with Lizard Infestations:

The best approach to tackling lizard infestations is by preventing them from entering your property in the first place. 

  1. If there are gaps or cracks in walls, doors, and windows, seal them. Certain scents and plants can act as natural repellents for lizards. 
  2. Try using strong-smelling substances like garlic, onion, or coffee grounds in areas where lizards are frequently seen.
