Can dubias climb acrylic?

So I've been making blueprints for an awesome home-built beardy cage, when I realized my plans included acrylic walls part way up, and I don't know if my new feeders (dubias) can climb acrylic. I know they can't climb glass or smooth plastic, but I know acrylic has tiny tiny pockets even though it is smooth to the touch. Can anyone tell me if they can or cannot. I'd like to find out before I do the build and then come home to find a colony of dubias in the living room :P

 
Critter keepers are acrylic and they can't climb up those. Over time, with rough cleaning, or the beardie scratching the sides there may eventually be scratches on an acrylic surface that could possibly allow it.
