You don't really catch them with rubber-bands. A well aimed rubber-band is used to knock them unconscious. After a well placed shot, you just walk up and pick them up.
There are a lot of interesting techniques to catch lizards.
As a matter of fact, you can catch some of the larger lizards with a cane pole and a piece of red velvet. They bite it, and then you yank them into the air. When they land they are too stunned to avoid capture. You can use the same technique for bullfrogs, but bullfrogs require a small fish-hook.
Also, try googling a lizard noose.
