Unable to locate lost AirPod using Find My

I lost my left airpod in my house four days ago, and find my iphone is no help as usual. Especially when the airpods life is one hour outside of the box, and impossible to be traced after that. The only information is that is was at my adress four days ago, i cant see where is my house, i just get directed to my adress at apple maps. And it doesnt show specifically how many hours, could have been at the morning, could have been in the evening..

Its the fourth generation of airpods, they should still be able to be traced even after they have died, like cmon it's in the same house as me.

For guidance, read Find your lost AirPods with Find My - Apple Support

I don't think Airpods have GPS, and even if they did, GPS is not super accurate, particularly indoors. It was likely getting the location based on the iPhone and I know for ours I am lucky if it puts a dot on our actual property or the neighbor's.
