Will Merit kill earthworms?

I'm trying to find a curative that will kill active grubs. Will Merit harm the earthworms in my turf? I'd like to avoid that if possible.

Answer:

Merit 0.5 G Insecticide Granules is not labeled for earthworms. With that said, while it is not likely to harm most earthworms because of the mucus coat and the depths the worms reside in, it is possible to kill some earthworms.
