My Mother's house is being taken over by green lizards. She lives adjacent to a wetland and up until the last year or two she has never been bothered by them. The pest control company she uses says they don't have a solution. Is there any spray or anything else that would help? She she at least 5-10 a day in her house and has even had them in her bed. HELP!

Lizards are good neighbors. They eat mosquitoes and other nasty critters. Like neighbors that take up residence, your mom needs to kick them out. A repellant around the outside of the house would probably help, if the weather doesn't neutralize it too quickly. Paprika is cheap and easily available and keeps them away. If your mother has a garage or covered porch or even wide eaves on her house that should do the trick. Snake repellant is another idea.
