The best method we found is to get up early in the morning while they are still out and stomp them. It's pretty amazing at how quickly it makes their numbers plummet. Sometimes when you stomp the females you can see the dozens of eggs she was about to lay. Stomp those too, just in case.
As for the catchment tank (or side of the house, car, etc) just knock them off with a stick and stomp away.
After a couple of mornings you can reduce your stomping to weekly, and eventually monthly.
Also the snails love rat bait, and they gravitate to the rat bait stations for hiding during the day. The bait doesn't harm them but whenever I check the rat bait stations I have stomping to do.
