Once your students join your Edmodo group, you can lock the group code so that no other students can join. Select the drop down arrow next to the group code and select the lock option. Your group code can easily be unlocked if needed (Note- when you unlock a group code, it will reset from the original code). You can also reset a group code by selecting the drop down arrow next to the group code and selecting reset. A new 6digit code will immediately be generated. Group members who have already joined will not need to rejoin, but any new members will need the new code to become part of the group.
