FactoryGirl creating factories objects on start

For some reason, when I run 

rspec specs

The models defined on Factory girl are automatically created. I was expecting to create the objects with sentences like:

FactoryGirl.create(:user)

But I am having a lot of duplication problems due to this.

Moreover, if I go to the rails console and I type:

require 'factory_girl_rails'

It inserts some records on my database.

Is this expected behavior?

UPDATE: The problem was on my factory (silly mistake). I was calling create method there.

FactoryGirl.define do 
  factory :user do 
    email "[email protected]" 
    first_name "Myname"
    last_name "MyLast name"
    password "DoeDoe12" 
    api_license FactoryGirl.create(:api_license)
  end 
end

No, this is not. Are you sure these records are created by FactoryGirl?

Make sure you are not loading seeds or fixtures. If you empty the /factories folder and the records are still created, then the culprit is someone else.
