i don't want to give up but i just have this odd gut feeling that she got into that whole next to my kitchen sink and will be gone forever.

I agree, don't give up. It's amazing where they hide. It's hard when you don't find them right away but you can't quite give up hope. I thought I had looked everywhere too, but apparently I didn't. They turn up in the oddest places. If you haven't already I would find a way to secure the whole so if she hasn't gone down their yet she won't be able too.

i also thought about securing the hole. but WHAT IF she is in there but didn't fall down in between floors? i couldn't see over the framing of the bathroom floor. so say she's right behind there and i just couldn't see her. i don't want to block the hole and then have her not be able to get out and have no where else to go but down.

Maybe you could try this snake trap?

Don't give up. I was convinced when one of my snakes got out that she was under the baseboard in the kitchen. I ripped it all out and she wasn't there. She was in my closet across the apartment behind a piece of cardboard that was leaning against the wall.

Sneaky snakes are sneaky. She is somewhere!!

i really hope so. :tears: and like i said, i don't think any feeding methods are going to work because she wasn't eating (for months) before she escaped.

The hole is probably dusty and dark; grab a flashlight and look inside it - if there are belly tracks in the dust, don't seal it up. If there is no evidence that the snake has gone through there, than block it off. Use your hunter/tracker skills!!!

dude trust me. i've tried everything lol its hard to see because you can't see too far. the bathroom flooring blocks your view. so there would be no way to tell if there were tracks in there or not. i blocked it off just in case, but i really hope she isn't in there.

maybe not food, but she sure needs water!

Any chance you have a friend who is a plumber...they might have access to one of those fiber-optic cameras used to locate blockages in pipes. I don't see why you couldn't use that system to search the wall cavity...just a thought.
