Default How to disable backup sensor?

2006 F-150. When I cranked the truck up today, there was nothing behind me. When I selected Reverse and went into gear, the backup alarm started going crazy, and would not stop. I don't want to fix it; I just want to disable it. Can I pull a fuse and knock it out without affecting any other circuits? I thought about disconnecting the backup sensors on the rear bumper, but I doubt that would take care of it. Can anyone give some advice on how to knock it out? Thanks in advance.

Mine has a on/off switch on the lower center console. Does yours not?

Take a blow dryer to the sensors to get the condensation out of them.
