Your only method to fight the creeper here is the sniper. Yes, that is 100% going to work. Trust me, it will be quick.

Where's the challenge?

Your base is immune.  Build what you want.

Build snipers.

As the anticreeper floods the area start sending out guppies to kill emitters.  Leave one.

Once the anticreeper has flooded the map kill the last emitter and then the nests.

The only optimization I can see is to figure out which nests produce the bad runners and kill them sooner, but the runners move so it's hard to tell.

There is no real challenge. I'm honestly confused as to why the ratings are so high for this level. Probably just the satisfaction of having self-destructing enemies, and the decent map creation (cogwheels visually)
The level isn't about optimizing, it's just about defeating the enemy in an unique way. It's just for fun.
When you want an explanation for something I use in my levels, or if you want to suggest something, feel free to tell me. Just don't ask/suggest things every other day please :P
