    Has never worked for me. I've trie mice, rats, and gerbils to no avail. If they decide they are going to hide, there is no coaxing them out into the open. This is in my experience, hopefully Karma might be different

    I have never heard of the mouse idea working. The plastic bag idea sounds like a good one to me, I'll have to remember it. I read somewhere to put flour down on the floor, but that sounds way too unpractical to me. Don't forget to check any exposed hot water pipes. If your room/apartment has an under the window or wall mounted heat/AC unit, turn it off and take the front panel off of it, there are hot water pipes inside of it, and I know of at least one instance where the snake found its way inside of one.

    Re: Mia

    Lost my little one once for a bit - she hadn't been gone long but we found her tucked right down inside the sofa underparts (not just the cushions) where we thought she might not fit (well - we were new to snakes then )

    Fingers crossed you find her.
