Sounds silly but are you sure he got out and isn't under the substrate, start there and work your way outwards in the room until you exhaust all options.

OK he got away from you. What makes you think he went under the floor?

OK, well you have no idea where he can go under the floor boards, I'd be tempted to take up a board and have a look.

Then you are going to have to hope that he comes back up again eventually, that is presuming that there is no further holes he can get through into the other flat or to outside.

Use the link above for ideas on how to lure and trap him.
