We use a custom Google Maps filter to show you where you can use Flux. Sometimes this filter remains 'active', even after you've exited Google maps.
To remove this, you'll need to access the google maps Mobile website, go to the Hamburger menu > My Maps > then change filter from OWNED to ALL. Choose the ellipsis menu and Remove from View the Flux pins.
(The below may also work on devices running older firmware)
To remove this, you'll need to access settings -> Your places -> Maps -> See all Maps from within the Google Maps app or via a browser. You should then have an option to remove the Flux store locations from your view.
If that doesn't work, you can also remove the filter via your maps history. Simply visit settings -> Maps History to see the filter and close it.

Shameful that you still haven't managed to fix an year old bug, and the suggestion is outdated for maps app
The solutions listed above aren't available on current (Nov '21) Android, so I'm unable to clear the filter and remove the locations from Maps. Please, please fix this, as it's making maps incredibly awkward and annoying to use.
-- Edit to add --
I have found a way of removing it in the current version of Maps - click the overlay button (that allows you to change from default to satellite etc, at the bottom of that menu will be a section called Explore and the Flux overlay will be listed there, tap it and it should go away! It should not be that difficult though!
Thanks @ Kiri Baildon-Smith.
The other solutions don't work.
