OP: Maybe it would help if you mentioned to your son that messiness indicates a lack of respect for himself and for his roommates.

I’m going to disagree with you there. Many people with ADHD have a kind of “blindness” to their environment and don’t really see their stuff all over the place, until it is such a big mess that they don’t know where to start. It’s not pleasant, but it has nothing to do with self respect. I suspect that some of this factors in to current popularity of minimalism, so people have less stuff to fall into disorder.
