Send each of them a notice that you are terminating their tenancy in 30 days and they need to move. If they do not move, then you file an eviction action.

You will have to serve each of the tenants with a notice to quit, and then if they don't quit, you will have to file an eviction action.

Check the Michigan Landlord Tenant Handbook available from the State of Michigan (Google it and download it) you can follow the procedures in it to provide proper notice to the tenants and evict them if necessary.

If there is a written lease agreement, you need to read and follow it. If not, just start an eviction under local court rules. I suggest that you send a demand letter to them first, telling them that you want them to leave in two weeks or you will evict them. As soon as you have sent it, start the eviction process.
