If they have not and have never paid rent and are just there becauise you have been nice, ask them to leave. If they refuse, change the locks, if they have keys.

They are not tenants if they do not pay rent, so you don't have to evict them. They have no legal right to be there, so you can tell them to leave, lock them out, and call the police if they are trespassing.
