    It can choke out native plant life, if left to do its thing. It is an invasive species for non-native areas, and that can even come down to what type of mint is native.

    The main issues are that mint doesn’t have a lot of requirements to grow, and is notoriously hard to kill. If it’s in a place it can survive, it can and will thrive left unchecked.
