It's super smooth and doesn't make a mess.

Now, I don't know if this will work for roaches but it stops 1/4" crickets which are known to be good climbers, just thought I'd let you know figured you could give it a try.
Thank you for the tip! That would work with some species of roaches which are only moderately good climbers, but it wouldn't stop something like a lobster roach. They can climb upside down on glass!
