Ahhhh... My snake escaped:(

I think that BIGT suggestion was very well intentioned, but if you consider the source where he got the recommendation, it was from an exterminator. My experience with exterminators are that they are trying to rid the house of any (pests) including snakes and any snake caught in his tape trap would very probably be dispatched by him as a pest. Thanks BIGT, I sincerely appreciate your taking the time to respond to my posting, but I think there are ways to find the snake that are much less likely to result in harming the snake. Thanks again everyone for your kind words, well wishes and suggestions, including BIGT.
