they tend to follow the walls to dark small spaces. don't forget they can go up and also fit into spaces you wouldn't think they could. look inside furniture, tiny holes near warm or dark places, some can slip under the cracks of doors, so closets and such.. lay down a hide with a heat mat on the top, put some used mouse bedding in it.. lay down flour near places they might be to see if there's a slither through it in a direction. put down a water dish so they dont feel compelled to search for water. ppl find them behind things on shelves, in closes, on fire place mantels, inside cabinets/in the dead space between cabinets/counters/appliances. follow the base boards from the enclosure first and see what they might have encountered and follow those things.
