Planting and BB Guns

I just purchased some red and white poinsettia's for my front yard at HD and repotted four palm trees! I layed down some mulch and transplanted a few plants around the front of our house. I swept and rinsed off the dirt on the patio and reseeded some of the grass....ohhhh I am on a roll.... BUT one of my main reasons to go to HD was to get grub killer b/c raccoons keep pulling up our new sod and my dad said it was to eat the grubs. (gross!) In my merriment at HD, I totally forgot it! Guess it is time for the BB Gun to come out. Yes, we own a bb gun. It is the only gun we own and it still freaks me out! I actually won it in a Christmas gift exchange last year. (I know what you are all thinking because I too thought it. "Who gives a BB gun as a gift?" That's another story.) It stayed in its carton until a few weeks ago when Ryan pulled it out excitedly and tried to scare off the raccoons. Apparently, it did not work. :) So, since I forgot the grub killer, we'll have to try again. :)
