My initial reaction was to say... don't do that... but what the hell. I've changed my mind. If they've gone a couple months or more, I'd send them a certified letter via snail mail (so you have proof) and tell them you demand payment immediately (or, well, give em like 2 weeks or something to physically deliver a check to you).
If they don't, mail em a second certified letter telling them that since they refused to pay you are essentially taking back the work you did for them. And then do it right after you mail the letter. Their only valid excuse for not paying you would be if the work were not of acceptable quality, in which case, gee, they probably are better off with it gone.
I would NOT threaten to do it (say, in the first letter when you demand payment) before you actually carry it out. This would (if they're smart) give them the opportunity to change the FTP passwords or otherwise prevent you from being able to access their server.
