remove it from the display list using removeChild method of displayContainer.

It's important to remember that removing a object from the display list doesn't kill the instance persay as it used to in AS 2.0. Infact if there is code inside of the object it will still execute even after its been removed from the display list.
So you must kill any code that might be executing inside of the object as will and kill any references to the object also so the GC will know to get rid of it from memory when the time comes.
