Brilio.net - The presence of lizards in the house is indeed disturbing. How could it not be, this reptile likes to excrete feces carelessly. As a result, like it or not, you have to sweep your house often to keep it looking clean and odorless.
Well, these reptiles also often target the food served on the dining table. In fact, if it is contaminated, the food can no longer be consumed. The reason is, as reported by medicalnewstoday.com, the lizard's body contains escherichia coli bacteria which causes diarrhea.
To get around this, a number of people use various methods to reduce the lizard population. The way that is often done is to make a trap. Just put leftover food as bait in the trap. Then set traps overnight in areas frequented by lizards . That way, the lizard will fall into a trap.
But for those who don't have time to make a trap, you can try other ways to catch lizards at home. As done by YouTube user CREATIVE IDEAS CHANNEL. In his video upload, this netizen appears to be relying on one kitchen spice to catch lizards in his house. Curious about how?
First, prepare the tools and materials first. It appears that the tools needed are a stick, knife, bowl and thread. As for the ingredients, this netizen relies on tobacco and one kitchen spice, namely flavoring stock powder.
If so, immediately thin the stick with a knife. The size can be adjusted according to your needs, yes.
"The length can be one meter or two meters freely," he said, quoted by BrilioFood from the YouTube CREATIVE IDE CHANNEL on Monday (6/5).

After that, mix the lizard bait. Mix the flavoring stock powder with water in a bowl. Stir until these two ingredients are completely mixed.

Then tie the thread at the end of the stick. Once done, tie the other end of the thread with the tubing that was previously rounded. These gunshot dots will make the lizard become limp and die later.
"The nicotine content of tobacco is the cause," explained the video owner.

After that, dip the tobacco bait into a bowl containing the flavoring broth powder solution. The goal is to make the bait smell good and make the lizards come closer.

So, how to apply it, just direct the bait to areas that often have lizards. Wait a few moments until the lizard finally eats the bait attached.

After eating the bait, the lizard seemed to immediately go limp. If that's the case, just throw the lizard out of the house. It's easy to imitate, right?

Repelling lizards using chili powder could be an option because lizards don't like the spicy aroma and smell produced by chili peppers. Here are the steps to get rid of lizards using chili powder:
1. Identify areas frequented by lizards.
Observe where lizards often appear in your house. Usually they will be seen around walls, corners of rooms, or dark and damp places.
2. Sprinkle chili powder around the area.
Take some chili powder and sprinkle it around the areas where the lizards frequent. Focus on the corners of the room, cracks in the walls, and places that are considered to be lizard nests.
3. Clean the remaining chili powder regularly.
After some time, make sure to clean up any remaining chili powder that may be lying on the floor or other surfaces. This can help prevent the chili powder from building up too much and disturbing the comfort of your home.
4. Use chili powder regularly.
Use chili powder periodically to maintain its effectiveness in repelling lizards. You can do this every few days or once a week depending on how often you see lizards in your house.
5. Pay attention to security.
Make sure to keep chili powder out of reach of your children or pets. Chili powder can cause skin and eye irritation, so be sure to wear gloves when handling chili powder.
Although chili powder can be effective in repelling lizards, it is important to remember that this is only a natural method and is not necessarily 100% effective. If the problem becomes severe or you feel you need additional help, consider using other methods such as sealing cracks in the walls or calling a pest control professional if necessary.
