Unwanted palys help

I have a bunch of palys growing where I don't want them. Need some ideas or help on how to remove or kill them. I can't easily remove the rock. Tanks are in Princeton if someone local can come help that would be great.
 
Got any pictures? For me, I used a hemostat and removed each individual polyp. Any re growth was taken care of with alk paste. My only caution is to not do it all at once, as any toxins released may cause stress/death to others in the tank. Wear protective gloves and eye wear so as not to injure yourself. If you have em on the glass use a scraper.
 
I've used Kalk paste to kill palys before. I never thought about the toxins as Zippy mentioned. So do a few every couple of days until their cleared out from were you want them. Good luck.
