    There are tons of threads on this. Try to think like a snake. Get down on your belly and look for heat sources and small hiding places. Appliances with motors create heat. If you have a heat gun take readings around the enclosure and look where the warm spots are. Good luck.

    One of my ball pythons escaped and I found her barely a foot away from her enclosure, she was curled up in a basket of CAT5 cable and such. In most cases they don't go too far, keep the exits to the room closed so your BP can't get out of the room. Look in shoes, between the bed, everywhere really.
