Lizards are a very common companion in the houses. These little reptiles keep the insect population down, so it’s best to chase them out instead of trying to poison or kill them. If you are afraid of lizards, the presence of one in your living room might be, creepy.
The common house lizards are called house geckos. These small geckos are non-venomous and not harmful to humans. No matter how many times people say lizards are harmless, let’s face it: they’re still classified as creepy crawlies.

Check here the home remedies to get rid of lizards that you can employ within your house.
Place Onion or Garlic in Frequented Corners
The smell of garlic will drive them away. You can also put it near a small table fan, to blow it across the room.
Air Out Cabinets Regularly
Check the cabinets under sinks regularly, and try to keep them dry (use newspapers to line the base, and change them often). As an upside, this will also prevent wood rot, and help your cabinets last longer.
Use Naphthalene Balls
Naphthalene balls will drive away lizards, as well as many other kinds of bugs. Be careful not to put them in places where children could reach and accidentally swallow them.
