I'm desparate for advice, here's my story:

My greyband mysteriously escaped from a locked vision cage. I think in hindsight that substrate had embedded in the door grooves, and stopped it from closing completely. Anyway, that was two months ago. I've searched like mad, tried every kind of trap from empty plastic soda bottles to glue boards, the flour technique, etc, etc. There are many cracks and holes near the radiators, behind appliances, etc.

Question: Could he be hibernating? How long can greybands go without food compared to boids? When should I give up hope?


Any advice or comments are appreciated
