    I would look in every nook and cranny, even if it looks too small for your snake to fit. Check inside all furniture, radiators, closets, under doors in other rooms, and I would put some flour on the floor to see if there are any tracks. Try to keep your other pets in a central location so you can see them if you are worried. When is the last time the snake ate?

    Bp's are excellent at escaping and hiding. You might have to tear your place apart to find him. Is there any way that he might have gotten outside after his escape? Don't give up hope if you do not find him tomorrow. Sometimes it is months before they show up again. If you do not find him in a few days, maybe you can try to lure him in with a mouse.

    He'll most likely head somewhere warm. Like the back of a refrigerator or somewhere like that.

    Once I had a BP escape from his tank and I found him later sunbathing on a windowsill behind the blinds.

    Every time one of my bps has gotten out, I have found it within 3 feet of the enclosure after ripping the room to shreds. You need to look in every single drawer and under every sock.
    Also, if you put down some newspaper against some walls where it might be moving around, there is the chance of hearing it move over top of it. There are also traps you can make with a mouse inside to lure the snake in and then it can't get out. Hopefully someone else can tell you about those.
    Best of luck.

    I would try sprinkling some baby powder on the floor (works best if there is no carpet) and you can then see if he moves around and try to follow the slither marks.
