How can I remove Facebook Pixel from Facebook - 2019?

I have 3 facebook pixels on my facebook: one of them is on my personal account and the other 2 live on my business manager account. I have been trying so hard to remove 2 of these pixels since I use only one of them but in vain! I have searched all over google and nobody really addressed this issue, at least regarding the new facebook platform!

Any help would be appreciated!

Can you delete a Facebook pixel code after making it?

If you set up Facebook pixel by adding the code to code injection, you'll need to remove the code to use the built-in integration. Removing the code won't affect your data in Facebook as long as you add your pixel ID soon after removing the code.

After contacting facebook support, I learned that it is not possible to delete your pixel from your account! This is outrageous indeed and does not make any sense! You can remove them from your site and this would stop data tracking and everything, except for your facebook account would have multiple Pixels that would make it look unorganized...

There is no way to delete an existing pixel. However, you can go to "Business Settings" > "Data Sources" > "Pixels" and there remove the connected "Ad Account" this way the pixel won't show up in your list of pixels when creating ads or custom/lookalike audiences!

Additionally, don't forget to remove them from your website as well.
