Suddenly lizards have come up from no where behind pots and also under vines on the walls. How to get rid of them?

they are of no harm to plants or you either. Rather they are insect eating machines.

I think this indicates that the insect population has increased in the area and I agree with Farhan that no lizard is harmful to plants but many insects are. I think you should let them live there. Spiders too :)

if at all you still want them to go away :-).....hang chicken eggs on the wall tied with thread ....(emptied but carefully broken from the top to retain their shape). Lizards will vanish like anything. My grandmother use to do that ...hahahaha..and it worked wonders.

Hard to believe that such an old school trick will ward off lizards, All my elders used to say that this works but never tried... Any logic behind empty egg shells ???
