On production you can delete the documents within a index but index will still be visible

If you want to delete the index from development server, just restart it.

after i restart it, yes it deleted, but, after i tried to access and re-add "customerindex" the "customers" appeared again... :( – zho Jan 05 '14 at 02:47

I don't think there is a method available to just delete the search index as is in the Production environment.

You could programmatically look at deleting the documents from the search index (a batch call also exists).

A couple of other SO posts related to this are given here:
