Tonight I'd like to give a big "thanks for nothing" to HoyHoy for failing to provide adequate accommodation for my cockroaches. In other words, these fuckers are either too smart to go inside in the first place or too strong to be held by the glue.
They're not big roaches. They're typically around 1/2 inch long. All the HoyHoy catches are pinky-fingernail-length insects that are either cockroach children or another type of bug entirely. There is a mysterious and repugnant brown...spot of...stuff...on the gluey HoyHoy floor, which suggests anything bigger than 1/4 inch is able to get out after a dramatic struggle.

I think it's that they're too smart too fall for it, after they see that several bugs appear to have died in it.
"Hey, Condi, should we go into that thing there?"
"What thing, George?"
"The thing littered with the corpses of our brethren."
"No, I don't think that's a good idea."
"You're probably right about that. Let's go find our way into the dresser again. Big Swearing Monster loves it when she discovers us in there."

Actually, now I'm putting another glue trap into one of the empty dresser drawers, and leaving the drawer open just a crack. Maybe it's all about location. =6

snark, ha, ew
