Move the trap into a new location as if he got in a wall or under the door they often can't figure out how to return to the original room. Oh and the longest I have had and escaped Syrian was 4 weeks. She's still not tame and tries nightly to escape even though she is now in a glass tank which she can't reach the lid nor can she chew a hole in the bottom. So I say don't quit looking but move the trap to a new location since it has shown no signs the little one is still in the original room.

Maybe try building more than one bucket trap?

Nancy 4 weeks is impressive! At least she is ok and safe now

That must be really sad, hope you are able to find him & that he isn't injured or sick. I would put a bowl of water in every room with baking flour around each bowl to check for paw prints, you must have food out on the bucket trap. You could put baking flour around the bucket trap where the food is & check if he's around?

Thanks everyone, still no sign. There is lots of water out, and little nests full of familiar scents, and a couple of buckets. No sign of prints in the flour, or evidence of the food being foraged in.

It is very sad, and becoming less and less likely that we'll see him again.

But there's always hope...

What a sweet pair, it is sad that George hasn't come back but as you say there is always hope, still keeping fingers crossed for you.

Listen at night time you may hear them and be able to find where they are hiding. Possibly behind or under furniture.

It's becoming less and less likely that he will turn up now. Food and water untouched, and no noises or sign of him. Poor little fella. I like to think he is in the middle of a great adventure. That way, the story never ends.

I'm so sorry must've very discouraging, but like the posts above say there is always hope! Like Nancy 4 weeks but it is concerning how there is no sign of him anywhere.
