Yea, the growbed with the mint should just be pulled out of the system, and a whole new one put in. The gravel you are growing it in will never be free of mint from what I hear. You may be able to dump the gravel into a place you actually want mint, like as a border to the house or something.

I caught the red worms in action today, they were hanging out in the worm feeders I made. It has been a while since I added any food, so the food looked very yucky.
