Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Iowa

I have a roommate that has lived with me for over 3 years. I am the owner of the home, he is refusing to move out until Dec. 31st. He will not sit down and talk with me. Our agreement was a verbal agreement, no contract ever made or signed. How do I go about having him removed from my home? I am an Iowa resident.
