Lizard traps
-
There are lots of lizards outside my house and they always run into my house.
I saw a lizard trap today. 1 packet consist of 2 traps to be pasted on the wall and the lizards will get stuck onto the trap. It cost $3.50 per packet
I was thinking of buying it but I don't know how it works.
Is it the lizard get stuck onto the trap and than it cannot move and eventually it die of starvation?
I am thinking the trap put outside of my house what if the lizard get stick onto it and some passerby pity the lizards and help free it? If you help the lizard by pulling it out of the trap can it still survive?
What if a few big lizards get stuck onto the trap and they push each other and because of their combined weight they push each other out of the trap? -
last time i tried... i observed the path taken by the lizard... left masking tape on the floor there... damned thing walked around it. smart creatures.

Yes. Those sticky traps with baits placed in the centre are quite useful for trapping lizards. Managed to get rid of almost all of them at home with just a few strategically placed traps. Unfortunately, with the lizards gone, cockroaches start to make a comeback. So think twice before you get rid of all your four-legged reptilian companions.

Yes, they do work, no they won't escape.

i rather have lizards than roaches.
-
I rather not have lizards crawling all over your kitchen, and dining tabletops leaving their defacation lying around, when you're sleeping.
-
i'd rather both DO NOT exist AT ALL
i have not used the trap b4 because i find it damn disgusting.... imagine a few liz got sticked.... and u leave it there for a few days.... the sight is totally wtf. And while removing it also like very disgusting like that

I believe thats what the slits were for, for you to check if the family is there.

what has lizards got to do with cockroaches.
House lizards or geeko do not eat cockroaches. It is only those big lizards that exists in the jungles that eat cockroaches.

Same.
When you see a cockroach you can use baygon to kill it but you can't use baygon to kill lizard.
So lizard are more troublesome.

House lizards don't eat the entire cockroach, they only eat their heads. When I was staying in my grandma's home which was rather infested with roaches, almost every morning a dead roach will end up somewhere with its head missing. Please enough of the roaches can live up to 9 days without their heads thing.

Baygon is ineffective as those pests will still crawl somewhere else to die, unlike hot water from the flask, one good aim, and they won't even know what hit them.

I use "shieldtox. Rapid kill". It is stronger than other type of baygon. When I spray it at the cockroach, the cockroach dies alomost immediately.
By the time you finish boiling the water, the cockroach will have run and disappeared away already

wow! so much thoughts for a lizard trap. yeahhh .. it gets stuck and die of starvation. But who would dare to pull a lizard out of the trap? The tail will drop off from the lizard because lizard drop their tails out of shock. It will work lurh. Don't worry. (:
