    Re: HELP!!! lost my 12in BP in my CAR!!!

    Sounds like you've done all you can do for the night. The heating pad with the hide might work for you. The coolness of the night might drive the snake to look for that warm spot. The hide should be small and dark...not just a half-log that some people use. If that's all it is, or if it's big compared to the snake, try just laying a crumpled towel or small blanket over the heating pad....they like to feel like they're crawling through and hiding in tight little rodent burrows or termite mounds.

    Another trick you can try is to sprinkle flour all over the seats and floor of the car. If the snake moves around at all in the night, it might leave a trail you can follow to find its hidey hole.

    If it's not there in the morning and you still can't find it, I'm not sure what to tell you. I know I'd be really scared, and scared to drive the car anywhere at all. But I also know that folks have lost snakes in cars and had them reappear days or weeks later alive and well.

    You will find him when you start smelling a funky skunk coming from your A/C vents.

    I've said this before. Try a cat or a dog, they can hear it/sniff it out.

    Same thing happened to me a while ago. The good thing is, we learn from it. Mine crawled behind my glovebox. Look there. You might need to take it off to find her.

    You might want to try a mouse in a box. If it's like most pet stores she is probably still hungry. Good luck! I hope she's ok.

    When I loose one I always find it looking for water not food.
