What kills lizards and keep them away?

I have noticed that baby lizards often gather near my apartment. They seem to inhabit the pine needles that the landscapers frequently place around or the cheap plastic material that makes up the exterior wall of my apartment. Currently, there is one outside that leaves for a minute or two but always returns to the same spot. I also observed a larger lizard that would sit by my door, but it seemed more interested in staring at my neighbor's door. I suspect that the exterminator may have killed that one. What methods can I use to deter lizards from my apartment and ensure they do not return?

I heard CATS will play with them before chewing off their head. To a cat  it is the same as mouse, rat, canary, snake.

The only reason they are in that location is that there are plenty of bugs for them to eat. Don’t know about you, but lizards are better than bugs in my book!

Lizards eat insects so they are very useful. Leave them alone unless you would rather have insects crawling all over you.

They don’t sound like they are doing bothersome behavior except hanging out by your door.

Why is that a problem?

They eat a ton of bugs. I’d leave them alone.
