My one year old corn got out of his home, any suggestions on luring him in with mice or something I'se appreciate it. I have flipped my basement upside down looking for this guy and i cant seemt o find him. PLEASE HELP!!
 
Looks like we are in the same boat. First, calm yourself a little. This is my second escape. I am not saying it gets easier, but the snake will turn up. Just keep looking, and try some bottle traps, and sand traps.
 
Put down some sand on a paper towel and you can tell which way they are heading.

Bottle, cut the neck off and put it back on the bottle, backwards. Put a pinkie in, and hope the snake is hungry. If you search on here for bottle trap, there are alot more detailed instructions.
 
My snake got out and what i did was put flour along the edges and corners of the wall. i also layed out plasitc bags along the wall so i could hear when she went over them. I spent 30min. in the dark listening for her around like 9pm. She was to small to make much noise on the bags but when i turn the lights on to look in noticed the the flour had be disturbed i followed the path of disturbed flour and found her under a shoe within 24 hours of her getting out. The snake probably isnt that far from his cage. Good luck and i hope you find your snake.

the best method is utilizing many at the same time. my one personal favorite is to lay painters tape sticky side up across door ways, along walls, and around vents. snake crosses and gets stuck. takes a little time to get off but you have your snake back unharmed.(assuming it has not left the building). its getting cool out so likely still inside where its warm. good luck.
p.s. tape trick doesn't work as well with flour trail. flour sticks to snake and in turn to tape, instead of snake.
 
the most important thing you can do is figure out how the snake escaped in the first place.

Why is that the most important? What if you have to go to the hardware store to get materials to fix the escape route? If that's the case, where do you put your newly found snake while you do that without it getting out again?

That way, you won't have a second escape and you won't have to do this again.
