To remove followers on Twitter without blocking them, you can make your account private temporarily. Switch to a protected account by navigating to Settings > Privacy and Safety > Audience and Tagging, then toggle 'Protect your Tweets'. Your followers will need to request to follow you again. Manually remove unwanted followers by rejecting their follow requests. Once complete, you can set your account back to public if desired. This allows control over who follows you without using the block feature.
