Just expanding on EricLaw's 2nd option, which is more useful if you've put that cert on multiple devices (fairly common during network testing), and you only want to remove it on one (source - http://www.cantoni.org/2013/11/06/capture-android-web-traffic-fiddler):
- Go to the Security tab in settings
- Tap Trusted credentials, then select the User tab
- Tap on the Fiddler “Do not trust” certificate, then scroll down to remove it
- You may need to power cycle your device to get all apps to forget about the Fiddler certificate (e.g., the Chrome browser will continue to try to use it for a while)

- Go to the Security tab in settings
- Tap Trusted credentials, then select the User tab
- Tap on the Fiddler “Do not trust” certificate, then scroll down to remove it
- You may need to power cycle your device to get all apps to forget about the Fiddler certificate (e.g., the Chrome browser will continue to try to use it for a while)
