Is it possible to remove or block pages from Google search?

What ways can you remove or blog pages from being included in Google search? Or, if pages have been included, how can you ask for them to be removed from Google's search results?

I thought that they had to be included in the search. I did not know that there was a way of getting around this.

Yeah it is. In your robots.txt file add Disallow: /folder/file or Disallow: /folder/ and it will disallow indexing any file in that folder.
Hope I helped you.

Robots.txt
Google and some other search engines respect robots.txt file. Anything you disallow in this file will not be show in the search results.

Google Link Removal
If something got indexed by Google that you want to remove, you can put in a link removal request with Google.

There is an option “Remove URLs” in Google search console to block pages from Google Search results. Also, you can block your page, directory or image by using a robots.txt file, or a robots Meta tag. In robots.txt file, use Disallow statement to hide your page block from Googlebot.

I think we can't able to remove other website blogs but we can remove our blogs by using webmaster tool or google analytic informing to the search engine don't crawl the blog page, so if the search engine did not crawl your link then in google search result also you can't able to find your blog

Using disallow code you can hide it from search engine. Or by using Google webmaster tool, you can remove the webpage of your website.
