I don't get how people DON'T have success with these products. You have to turn off all your pumps and SMOTHER the animal. Don't just feed it the damn stuff, suffocate it in its hole. Wait 15 minutes then use a syringe to suck them out. Done.

Turkey baster and hot boiling water. Cheap and effective.

I am getting some berghia nudi's to take care of mine. Hopefully I can establish a nice balance to keep the berghia colony alive.

Not having any products on hand I tried two techniques with what I did have. First I put the rock with the worst problem into my QT and injected them with pure white vinegar. Killed them instantly then used the syringe to suck out the remains. After 2 weeks about a third of them were back and/or ones I had missed showed up. Next I used kalk paste on them and also on about 10 in my display tank. The next day I reapplyed on one small one that I hadn't hit well. It's been a week so far and none have come back so fingers crossed. As Albert said, I also believe the key is to smother them and fill the hole they come out of.
