Get a FLIR capable camera and scan for heat sources
Ulefone Armor are relatively cheap phones with that capability, and they're fun too
Amazon has some no name brands for not insane money. But used you can get actual flir stuff for pretty cheap. Especially those phone attachment cameras. Just know as “technology progresses” they might stop working with new OS versions.
