How to switch off wlan completely?

I basically always use the mobile network for internet. Very rarely, when there are problems with the mobile connection, or I need extra speed, I use a wireless network. However, it seems that the phone tends to automatically connect when it sees a known wlan, even when I have switched wlan off in setup. It doesn't happen always, perhaps it's triggered by a momentary loss of mobile connection. In these cases, I again switch off wlan, and the phone goes back to the mobile network. I wonder if there is a way to completely disable wlan until I decide that I want to use it.
