They unexploded munitions then sit around waiting for someone to cause them to detonate. They aren't especially large so policing all of them up after a conflict isn't as easy as finding an unexploded conventional 500 pound bomb. As you might expect the Russian munitions have a much higher failure rate than ours. It's the same reason many countries have banned landmines, they can cause a lot of death and injury long after the conflict has ended.
I would add the real issue is the cluster bombs can and do detonate later causing major harm to civilians.
