Instructions
Check the weather. Lizards enjoy moist areas. Go outside on a cloudy day after it has rained or while it is sprinkling.
Go to a wet area in your yard or a wooded area. Look for lizards toward the bottom of trees such as near the roots. Turn over rocks and leaves, as well. Look at the trunk of the tree for easy to see lizards.
Quietly approach the lizard. Put on a pair of gloves. Gently scoop the lizard up with your hands.
Cup your hands together as closely as possible.
Place the lizard in a cup. Cover the top of the cup with plastic wrap. Poke holes in the plastic wrap with a small twig. The holes provide the lizard with plenty of air.
