The bottle trap link was also in the thread that you started when Monty went walk about as well.

Kev, I am so sorry to hear about your snake escaping. It is so scarey when that happens, but there are a lot of steps you can follow...as shown in the links Skorps has given you. The main thing is not to panic and to look anywhere and everywhere, high and low, concentrating on small, dark spaces and anywhere that gives off any warmth. Also it is vital you put out water as they can go without food for ages but need water. I know this is all in the link but it is worth repeating.

Any idea of how and when it escaped?

Please let us know how you are getting on.

Skorps - you really are doing a fantastic job guiding people to the right places to look for information, well done!!

That is such a relief to hear you have found him!! Front door and step??? Does that mean he was outside?

A warning though...watch your use of tape in a viv cos of the chance of snake getting stuck!

Do you have any idea how he got out?
