What you need
- 1 cardboard box (a shoebox works, but so will something smaller. In this example, we used a box that held business cards)
- Leaves from bushes and trees around your yard
- Scissors
- Glue

3.
When the glue has dried (usually overnight), place the Lizard Lair on the ground in a good spot, such as under a bush or in tall grass or weeds. Why not make another one? The more homes you have around the outside of your home, the more lizard “neighbors” you may have!
