    My first escapee

    Alright, in the 8 years I've had bp's not one of them escaped. Until today. I'm at work right now and I got a phone call from my wife. Our female patel escaped and went down the duct work before she could grab it. So, how should I get it out without having to call a duct work person out to rip out the duct work costing me a ton of money? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.

    So after some collaboration over the phone with my wife, she was able to go into where the snake went with a mirror, a flash light and got her out.

    So am I. My fear was that we wouldn't be able to find her and she'd freeze with the ac on.

    Mine did the same thing! She got out one night and we tore the snake room apart the next morning. I finally did find her in the duct work later the same day thanks to one of my cats (watch them, they will find the snake before you will) and I was able to get her out.
