    Check all hot spots in ur house. Behind tv, under clothes on the floor. Any hot spot. Best option would be cool the whole house and turn on a small heater and put a hide near it and just leave his enclosure open

    id say youd only want to do it if you have wooden floor boards it would be fun enough cleaning it up off that , i wouldnt even consider it if you have carpet

    My grandfather back in Europe had a Coral Snake and he lost it and couldn't find it about a month later they went out and
    my grandmother got her good handbag out of the wadrobe and it was curled up inside.
    Try behind the fridge, tv, ect. where its warm.

    Sounds stupid, but look close to the tank! my spotted is a houdini, she always goes into my drawers and snuggles up in my undies -.-

    First and foremost, fix the issue so the snake cannot get out again Accidents happen, but letting it happen more then once is irresponsible and poor pet ownership imo.
