When I purchased my new citrus trees may were blooming. As a result of their promiscuity many are now "pregnant" with fruit. What is the best way to remove these. I tugged on a few but they are pretty well attached. Most are at the bb size now.

The trees should automatically drop whatever fruit it can't handle. Otherwise you should be able to just pinch off any fruitlets with your fingers.
