Native Plants for Lizards & Small Wildlife

Native lizards and other small wildlife need more than a particular plant species. They use the physical structure of the landscape.

Create cover and basking areas

Layer shrubs and ground-level plants with appropriate rocks, logs and undisturbed spaces. A healthy insect community also provides food.

Avoid hazards

Consider pets, pesticides, traps and other features that can turn habitat into an ecological trap.
