Lay down bottle traps, plastic bags (listen for rustling), keep looking. Think warm and dark!

Oh No!! my snake got out a few months ago and it freaked me out, so I put a bunch of plastic bags around my room and set out a pinky and just waited in the dark, a few hours later I heard the bags moving and found my snake behind his tank, like 2 feet away from the escape point, so don't give up hope, keep looking. I hope you find him!

So sorry to hear that, just replied to similar thread in General Keeping Info... try to think about all the small, dark places it could have gone to - starting from the viv, and working outwards. It's amazing the small places they can fit into - start with those.

Stay up at night, in the dark, and listen for rustling. Set up various traps...

Several people on here had a snake escape, and many have found them again, sooner or later, so keep looking, and don't loose hope.

don't rule out any hiding places thinking that they able to won't be fit, we found the snow corn at work in a gap in the door frame. I'd had the entire unit upside down looking for him and had walked past him countless times! The door was only a foot away from his viv.
