Default Dragon in the roof

I have a 6 month old aussie water dragon that did a jail break on my friend while he was house sitting for me. i have located the dragon but it is in my roof and i have no way to get up there other than to cut a hole. I tried putting dead crickets as well as live ones at the area he climbed up. just wondering if anyone knows anything else that may lure him out.

Thanks in advance for any help
