i would try your standard small rackoon trap or cat trap bateing him with his faveorite foods , other than that , just look in every small space you can imagine and then all the ones you cant, sorry you lost him ,

It will probably come back to the cage looking for heat and possibly food. I caught an excaped anole sitting on top of the anole cage trying to bask. This was after it was loose for 3 days. I just happened to be home at a time I was usually not there.

thanks for your help guys, so far there is still no sign of him, unfortunately. i have no clue where he is, i think i have looked everywhere and not noticed a trace of him. i hope he is still in my room, he should be though since its hottest part of the house.
