Ok, I have a giant bed of mint gone wild. I'll be keeping some and removing most of it. You can take all you want and dry it, or even put it in your potted soil. Located in Hopatcong. Makes great ice cream, iced tea, cookies etc. I would hate to just dump it all.
 
Burn it. Once it's gone wild it is incredibly difficult to kill and takes over everything.
 
Ducati, I have a Koi pond in my back yard. For years I have had nightly raccoon raids destroying plants and killing fish. Someone told me raccoons don't like mint so I planted mint in with the cattails and pickerel-weed. Not one raid this year so far.

I understand they are selling mint flavored trash-bags to keep the masked critters from tearing apart garbage. You may be sitting on a gold mine of "Raccoon Repellent" and not know it. ......... I think I'll head out by the pond ...... those Mojitos sounded tasty. [tasty]
