Lost bp!!

If you're worried about him in the fridge, maybe you can empty it and carefully tip it straight forward - door down. As long as you check to see that he's not under the front lip before you do that I can't see you squishing him at all.

this was also posted on the link above but u may not have seen it since its on the 2nd page.
This is how i catch mine. Mine gets out all the time. But I allow it to , sometimes. Don't go out and buy this stuff just improvise with what you have handy.

Take F/T or live (bait) whatever yours eats, Put it in a aquarium with screen lid on it so the smell of the rat can get out. Then just get some plastic cups and put some coins in them and place them on top of the tank and or around it. Trust me it will Knock one of them over and wake you up.
You can variate the method to suit your needs.
You can also put cups of coins around the walls of the room since this is usually where they like to travel. Much like the plastic bags Ash mentioned, I just find that a cup of coins hitting the floor will pretty much wake the dead. You can also try using a fan to blow on the mouse so it will get the smell of the mouse throughout the house. Try setting the cups precariously at a tilt to where they are just about to fall over.
To even go simpler you could just put your bait mouse on a plate and place it on top of a cup of coins.

with a house that empty I would also use the flour method as mentioned above.
PM me if you like.


Good luck

i fell asleep with a snake out once, but luckily for me he curled up right near me in the curl of a chair cover. And that room was FULL of crap. it would have been a disaster.

to robin: I have never had another escape, and i would never let them escape repeatedly. That's so irresponsible i don't have words for it. You're supposed to protect your pets and take care of them the best you can, not do things like let them wander around on purpose. They are captives, you are supposed to take care of them. doesn't even sound like you really care. what you think it's a little joy ride for the snake to go out exploring? don't think he can get hurt, or accidentally get stepped on, or go down a drain, or get behind something and get stuck. But you just let them escape and think it's no big deal *rolls eyes*

anyway, back to the OP. THe snake is probably in an appliance. The best thing you can do is to unscrew the screws on the dryer or washer and lift off the top or the front panel. We just did this the other day to our dryer to clean it out. There is a LOT of space around in there for a snake to hide and access. think of the last place you think the snake would go and that is probably where it's hiding *lol*

um may i ask why...?

I keep my snake in a 3 tiered encloser 5feet tall by 1 1/2 foot square. Its more than its required from what i have read.

You asked so here it goes..

Because it's in my bed room. It can not get under the door (Its to big) Its about 4 feet long, enough said.
I have an automatic door closer on the room. It shuts the door automatically behind me. It can never escape this room.
Now there are exceptions to its freedom. I keep live rats 4-6 a month. I do not allow it to be free when i have live rats in the room. After my snake has eaten all the rats, I turn him loose in the room (free to go where ever it wants).
I wait 2-3 weeks before buying any more rats.
There is method to my madness...

You were the one that started this by making your comments about letting your BP "escape" and roam your room freely! So actually you were the one that took the thread off track. And, now that other keepers are questioning your VERY QUESTIONABLE choices with the care of your animal you want to get all butt hurt and angry and tell them to get back on track!?
