Be more specific and I will see what I can do to help. I need to know the following:
1. What type of lizard (or at least a description of them or how and where they live so I can take a stab at what type they are)
2. What type of area they are in.
3. Why they are such a pest to you.
Please be as precise as possible so that I can make real meaningful suggestions. BTW I will not tell you how to kill them... There are better ways to solve your problem!

Why ever would you want to do a thing like that? Most lizards are an important aspect of the local ecological system.
Is it that you are scared of them? Killing an innocent creature just because it is "making your life miserable" is rather harsh. My cats wake me up early every morning, and I have to admit I'm pretty miserable when they do so, but I would never think about killing them. Same thing goes for the noisy crickets and frogs in my neighborhood, the spiders that I get bit by, and the birds who wake me up.
Why not just gather them all up (if you have to, use some sort of humane/non killing trap), and take them someplace far away from you.
You didn't mention where you are, and what type of lizards you are dealing with, or what they are doing. Perhaps some more information would be good.

The lizards are in the environment actually making life more enjoyable. Some insect abounds nearby or the lizards would be in hiding. In lots of cultures, it is considered a blessing, good fortune or good luck to have lizards nearby. We live in the center of the U.S. and have Bibron's and House Geckos loose in the home. Never do we have so much as a moth, cricket, cockroach or brown recluse spiders. Give me the lizards any day. We have a pair of blue-tailed skinks living on the front porch and love to watch them running furiously as a person approaches.

buy an indoor cat...my cat likes anything that moves, she watches any ant, any tiny spider, anything for weeks at a time if they are in a crevice, she chases them if they are out in the open, and then she just jumps on them and they go into shock from fright and die. I know how difficult the lizzards are to catch indoors if they get in.
If they are outdoors then let them alone because they are reproducing to eat the bugs you have around your house, and that's a good thing.

In most civilised countries the native wildlife is completely protected and it is illegal to kill lizards. That is certainly the case in Australia. I can't understand why anyone would want to kill them.

Go ahead and kill them. Then, when the insect population around your house explodes and they start moving in with you, you'll have a bigger problem.

noooooooo!!!!!!
don't kill them!
even though they're the most repulsive animal on the face of the earth, you shouldn't harm them for no reason.
Just find a way so they can stop coming...plz.
