So we had a few baby balls get loose a few weeks ago, tracked them all down but one. Searched high and low, took apart ductwork, emptied rooms and re-filled them, nothing. Put out food and heat and water, nothing. Apparently our temps and humidity have been high enough that he just keeps hiding

I am out of town for work until wednesday, and I just received a few messages from my wife. (I sleep during the day). Apparently she found the last snake, but it was attached to some foil tape (I had used a small piece to hold down my helix when the stickies failed, and apparently the foil tape had failed to hold down the t-stat and was popped up where he could get stuck on it.

She was able to gently remove the tape from his back, but there is a bunch stuck up on his neck and possibly on one eye. My question is, does anyone have experience with foil tape + snake, and what is the bset way to remove it? He has already lost some scales from thrashing about the previous night and I dont want that to happen when removing the rest of the tape.

Thanks
