Can Seven Insecticide Granules be used to kill earth worms to help eliminate moles?

Answer:

Sevin Insecticide Granules are not labeled to kill earthworms but do work for white grubs, which are another food source of moles. There are no products on the market in the USA that are labeled for earthworms as they are largely beneficial creatures.  There are a few known control methods that include cutting back on irrigation so that the worms will go deeper into the soil for the moisture they require to survive or fertilizing your lawn after a heavy rainfall which will eliminate some of the population.
