Even with a bowl, nonclimbing roaches are an option. I use one twelve inches across and three or four inches deep, so the toad can jump right into it, and even full-grown death heads rarely are able to climb out. Discoids would certainly be trapped.
I like bowls. You can use naturalistic substrate more safely than with crickets hopping all over, and there's no stress from uneaten bugs crawling/ nibbling on them. The toad gets to approach them on its own terms, whenever it chooses to. So what food items have you offered?
