Take a lot of used coffee grounds and dump them in the jar. Put some water in the jar (not too much, just enough to cover the spent coffee). The roaches will crawl up the wall and into the jar, falling in. I think this is called a vegas roach trap.
So the roaches get stuck in the sticky coffee or they just can't get out cause the jar is slippery? Anyways, I don't thing you can catch as many roaches with that method as you would with the dog biscuits left outside in one night.
