Baby Ball Python Escaped!!

[Saber402]

Also has anyone had any luck catching ball pythons with glue boards without the snake getting hurt? I'm honestly not going to try that, but I've called some of my local pest control places and two of them suggested that glue boards are one of the best and cheapest ways to catch pet snakes. I feel it's too dangerous, but they said its fine as long as I check the boards every hour or so and have some vegetable oil ready to get rid of the glue on the board once I find him. I was just curious if anyone's tried it on here with no damage to the snake.

Very glad you found your snake! I had one of mine decide to explore the house for a week last year so understand how stressful it is.

I am surprised no one commented on the suggestion to use glue boards by not one, but two pest control businesses to "catch" a wandering snake? I can't imagine how stressful and likely painful this would be, thrashing around trying to get the board off! Sounds like a non-reptile person pulling a thought out of his behind! But, then again, they are in "pest" control so not very likely to be trained in proper reptile husbandry.

Anyone ever hear of this being used?
