A wee lizard was trapped in a five gallon pot of sunflowers. Its feet were slipping and sliding on the plastic surface preventing him from escaping the pot.
I placed a wood shim near the lizard. The texture of the wood helped it climb out of the pot. The shim is 1.75″ wide.
Concerned that the lizard might need some water, I placed a rock in an applesauce cup with a little water.
After I get past…it is not a snake, I welcome lizards to live in my gardens.
