Mint Eradication Services in North Saanich — Take Back Control of Your Garden

Mint Taking Over Your Garden? We’ll Remove It for Good.

Mint might smell great, but when it escapes the herb bed, it becomes one of the most aggressive and frustrating plants to deal with. Left unchecked, it can overrun garden beds, spread through lawns, choke out other plants, and return year after year — no matter how many times you dig it out.

Ascent Yard Care specializes in full mint eradication in North Saanich, using a combination of manual removal, root tracing, soil remediation, and licensed herbicide treatments when necessary to get lasting results.

Why Mint Is So Hard to Eliminate

• Spreads by underground runners (rhizomes) that can travel well beyond visible growth
• Breaks off easily during hand pulling, leaving roots behind to regrow
• Thrives in moist soil and competes aggressively with perennials, vegetables, and ornamentals
• Repeated cutting or digging often makes it spread more if not fully removed

Our Proven Mint Eradication Process

✅ Site Assessment

We identify the full extent of the infestation — not just what’s above ground, but where the root system has spread.

✅ Root System Removal

We carefully dig out the plant, following rhizomes to remove as much of the underground network as possible. This is essential for long-term success.

✅ Targeted Herbicide Application 

(optional)

Where appropriate and permitted, we use selective herbicide treatments (licensed and safe for residential use) to target regrowth or deeply embedded roots that can’t be removed by hand.

✅ Soil Screening & Remediation

In severe cases, we screen, replace, or amend soil to reduce the chance of re-emergence and allow you to safely replant.

✅ Garden Bed Restoration

We can replant cleared areas with native, pollinator-friendly, or drought-resistant species, install edging or barriers, and apply weed-suppressing mulch to prevent new infestations.

Ideal For:

• Garden beds where mint has taken over
