Sticky tape was probably the most effective of those for keeping numbers down but didnt get rid and was messy. It's a pain but the organic method that worked for me was a layer of grit over the top of every pot, tray or module in the area to stop them laying eggs in the first place

That's what I do too. And stand the seed trays/pots on a layer of grit because they get under the bottom of the pots, pernicious little critters.
