Need help on block or reject traffic on DNS port 53 from WAN.

Below is my firewall rule on WAN site.  The TCP seems to be block, but UDP is still open for some reason. The DNS forwarder is enabled. Dynamic DNS is enabled.  Thank ahead.

 *    RFC 1918 networks  * * *
 
 TCP  *  *  *  53 (DNS)  DNS block   
 
 UDP  *  *  *  53 (DNS)  DNS block UDP

By default, everything is rejected from LAN unless you allow it.  Also, by default, everything is allowed from LAN.  If you want to block LAN outbound traffic, it has to be placed BEFORE the default allow rule.
