Escaped Stimson

Hi All,
Our female stimson got out of her enclosure two days ago now and we can't find her anywhere.
Have tried leaving rats out and powder etc.My children and partner miss her.
I really believe he is still in the houe but aside from tearing open all the furniture we have searched everywhere.Had a late night trying to hear her.Any advice would be great as she is a much loved pet and we do not want to lose her

i guess all you can do is wait for her to decide to come back i would just continue to leave the door of her cage open and the heat on and hopefully you'll just find her curled up in there one morning

Best bet is turn off all the lights and only look at night which is generally when they're on the move,put noisy shopping bags around,mouse in a tub etc,even a heat mat nearby and look in the tightest smalles most unlikely spots cause that's where she'll be.My guess it's not far away at all still inside,give it time and look at night you should get your stimmy back sooner or later,good luck!!

Thanks, we have tried everything. She is due for a shed so im hoping she is snuggled up somewhere, waiting to shed before she comes out and starts looking for food. Just wish she would hurry up.

Well we haven't given up, but we are stuffed if we know where she is.It is driving us mad.I think we have done about all we can except tear the house apart( which I am considering) but hopefully she is o.k.

This might sound stupid but a couple of people have told us to leave small bowls of milk around the house in an attempt to attract the snake.Is this a joke as I do not believe that snakes would have any interest in milk?
Any ideas about this

well same happened to me just recently. The only advice I can give is if you are going to use talcum powder, get the unscented variety. I didnt, now my herp room smells like a gay bar
