    Try using one of the dogs. Just watch them smell around and look for them to get particular nosy around something. I've had multiple mice, one rat and one snake get loose and one of my dogs has always found them. Hell she found the snake before I even knew it got out

    Re: HELP...!!! My BP has escaped!
    Thank you everyone for the good tips. But after 3 hours of searching around the apartment. I literally put the whole place upside down...

    I FOUND HIM!!! Yayayaya. So excited!
    I had to pretty much strip the entire heat and vent system in one of the rooms to find the guy hiding in a little corner. It took me 1 hour to get him out of there. I almost had to take the wall down.

    After a lot of work he finally gave up and let me took him out of there. Now he's taking a nice warm bath before he goes back to his cage.

    My God I feel so much better now that I know he's safe, a little bit stressed out and scared but safe and alive.

    I'm gonna leave him in his cage and not bother him for a few days until he gets back to normal.

    While trying to get him out of the hole he scratched himself against the wall. No blood or flesh showing but i can see his scales got a bit of damage. I will have to monitor him closely to make sure it doesn't get worst or infected.

    Thank you very much for all the replies. I feel so good to know there is a whole community out there looking out for BP keepers.

    Thanks a lot!

    Good job!

    Glad he is OK.
    The fiberglass there concerns me, but maybe someone more experienced can chime in about that.

    Yes I was thinking the same. It's the kind of isolation material they used in this building. It's extremely itchy when you touch it with your hands.
    I put him in warm water with a drop of dishwasher for about 40 min to, hopefully, help clean his skin. He seen pretty relax in the water.

    One of my biggest concern is if he could get mites for being in that hole?
    Any thoughts......

    I wouldn't worry about that. If there were snake mites in that hole, they would have found your snake before it ever had escaped

    The mites our snakes get aren't indigenous you have nothing to worry about unless you have reptiles living in your Walls.
