1) Block every possible nook n cranny other than one way out of his 'home'

 

2) Set a big nice smelling trap for him at the bottom of a bucket or large glass jar etc. I reckon banana would work quite well. Put it near his new home and check it as regularly as possible. He's probably hungry so I reckon you'll catch him quickly. Just need to make sure the wall of the bucket/jar is steep enough that he can't get back out again.

Oh and just for the record my first hammy escapee also picked the toilet sistern foam padding as her temporary home...strange eh? lol.

my hamster escaped when i was young he was missing for about a year and then i found him in my bath of all places. when i have had other hamsters escape food traps are the best. have you got an exercise ball you could put dry food in? hammy will come to eat it and make a noice which will tell you he is there.

poor hammy, you really don't have much luck with pet's do you, they do tend to end up dead.
