Any ideas on how to "catch" a BP who has gotten loose? I feel like I've looked everywhere.

Mine showed her tiny hatchling face when I brought out the rats to feed to the rest of my collection. She just suddenly appeared in the middle of the room! I guess a tasty rat is just too delicious to pass up!

Check all warm spots. If there is any wY out of the room then put a line of baby powder on the threshold so you can see if he crosses it to get out. Prey items could work, also put down a bowl of water just incase. I had a gaboon get loose about 8 years ago,( facility went into defcon) and i put out a stansfield heat pad and plugged it in, turned all the lights out for the day and that joker was on that pad when i went back about 6 hours later.

Found him!!! I FINALLY got a mouse after our stupid pet store opened and got some baby powder and went home, put the mouse in a cage, set the box the mosue was in in another room and put powder along the doorframes and after I did the bathroom "the last room" I looked up and he was sitting in the corner with his head raised up saying "Oh, hey...sup" So I picked him up and then offered him a mouse and he took it like a champ, even though he's used to rats. Hope he doesn't think he was rewarded for his bad behavior lol.

LOL! That's usually how it happens! Fortunately unlike mammels they never go far when they get out. They just find a place to chill and hide out for a while!
