I know that opinions vary, but what's your opinion?!I have great luck w Rosemary plants. Green all year long.
I love them, send them all to me! Just pick them up and place them back in the yard. They are great for your yard and garden. You can just very gently nudge them along with a fluffy broom. Most lizards are totally harmless and are quite friendly. I have no idea why people do not like them so much.

Good luck William! Thanks for using Hometalk for help :)
I can understand you not wanting them to jump on you,but they do eat a lot of undesirable insects.Other than screening the porch in,I don't know of a way to run them off. 😕
I was going to same the same thing! I rescued a dog that eats them now. Much to my consternation and our insect population has flourished. They are usually on places where bugs gather, so think about lights that attract bugs and hence attract lizards. They eat no-see-ums (midges) which we can't see but they slurp up. Midge females hang around where humans and other mammals hang out because they need blood to breed - just think of your lizards as a natural bug repellant and ask them to make room.
Try sprinkling eggshells around the perimeter :)
