I've had success in the past siphoning out all that I can see/find (I used regular airline attached to a piece of rigid airline) followed by a round of Salifert's Flatworm Exit.
 
I think I've pinned them down to a harnless species only if number are kept down I've found a handful on each of my corals brushing them off seems to kill them because they're so delicate but i cut one in half and i think it multiplied any information would be helpful.
I have sucked them off corals to reduce the numbers but i can't seem get them all.
Any coral dips that can kill them for LPS corals?
I don't dip my corals but all the corals i have from this plave have some and they are isolated to just those corals
