Lizard repellent for cars?
So...there are tons of lizards around the house in the recent years, and sometimes they get into my cars (into engine bays too)
I don't mind them but want to see if anyone know good repellent that can keep them away from the cars? Don't want to kill or harm these little dudes every other time I drive or have them die in hard to reach places in my engine bay...

Long-haul truckers who don't want "lot lizards" stopping by their cabs at truck stops have stickers they put on their cabs as repellents. Maybe check into that. Might work for 4-legged lizards too.

put a rubber snake near your parking spot - my wife uses little fake snakes in the hanging plants on our porch to keep the birds from nesting in them

I also have used rubber snakes on my lawn to keeps birds away from newly seeded spots. It does work well.

This is the first time that I have heard someone complain about lizards in a car engine bay. I have never encountered it before so I don't know how to answer this query.

Lizard problem you say?
Perhaps park indoor or get an owl, a pet snake or a weasel. |

Personally I like them because they eat cockroaches and I fucking hate cockroaches.
However, some people like my daughter can't stand them so they use this repellant at her home. Granted I don't go over to her place often but when I do I usually sit on their patio and smoke a cigar and to date I've never seen one out there. and by the way, do you know what I have seen on her patio? Fucking cockroaches. The reason I don't go to their place often. https://www.amazon.com/Natural-Armor...98257738&psc=1 |

I actually think they are pretty cool little creatures which is why I want them to stay away from the cars, it is easy for them to get harm and a messy situation for me. I was actually able to get them to jump onto my hand or walk on my arm a few times and they are pretty awesome.
A few years back I found a dead and dried lizard hidden in my trunk and not sure how long that poor guy's been there, and they always like to stay in the M3's engine bay for whatever reason... Quote:
