Paid $60 for a cable management kit and my desk looks worse now

I thought I was being smart buying one of those all-in-one cable management kits with the sticky clips and velcro straps. Turns out the adhesive on those clips gave up after three days in my humid basement, and now I have cords dangling everywhere. My monitor cable fell behind the desk and pulled my keyboard off the edge this morning. The velcro straps are fine, but the clips are a total joke. Has anyone found a cheap adhesive that actually holds cables to the bottom of a desk?

Yeah those sticky clips are pretty much garbage once they get any humidity. I'd skip adhesive altogether and get some magnetic cable clips instead. You can get a pack of 20 on Amazon for like six bucks and they hold way better than glue ever will. Just make sure your desk legs are metal though... I made that mistake and had to return them.

Saw a buddy's cables turn into a giant rat's nest after those clips peeled off in a single afternoon.
