All good suggestions.

BTW, I have lost a few montane kings (pyro, ruthveni, thayeri) in the past and found each either in the same room or just outside the room, sometimes as long as 10 days after escape.

Each find was under something that was flat and had very little space under it. One was a folded towel, one was a t-shirt, one was a piece of drip paper I laid down when painting trim.

So keep your hopes up. I like the paper bag idea.

BTW, I lost a prize rosyboa once. Tore the room apart, nothing. About a week later, I find him in the baby rack behind a shoebox laying on the heat. Probably there most of the time. Sometimes the most obvious places we overlook.
