Hey everyone, It's been a while.
Unfortunately, I return with bad news and I am hoping for some advice.
My 4 1/2 inch A. seemanii is apparently a LOT stronger than I gave her credit for. She unscrewed the lid of her enclosure two nights ago and is at large in my house.
So my question for everyone is this:
Has anyone ever experienced an escape from this species or similar moisture loving terrestrial species? If so, what were the results? Did you ever see them again and if so were they still alive? If the T was recovered before it dried out, where was it found and how long after escaping?
My current strategy is this:
I have strategically placed water dishes in various locations around the house and I am waking up every 2 hours at night to look around the house as best I can. I have also been leaving the ceiling fan in the living room on to hopefully deter her from leaving the room she escaped in.
Honestly, any advice on escapes is appreciated, as well as thoughts and prayers if you don't mind. I was very fond of her, and she was my newest tarantula so I'm pretty torn up about it.
Thanks in advance!
