N2 - We find an anomalously slow trapping rate Q for trapping of nonidentical interacting particles in topologically linear systems with randomly distributed sinks which are selective for particles below a critical radius rS. The particles have an arbitrary size distribution and interact by a hard-core repulsion. Our quantitative result, Q∼exp(-At1/5), is general, and the amplitude A can be tuned since it depends on the concentration of the nontrappable particles.
