My mint is looking pretty straggly, I was wondering should I prune
it & if so will this have any detrimental effect?

Nope. It loves a haircut

The rabbits like it too.

Snails too.

I was surprised to come out one morning and find my abundant mint pot
*gone*, completely - what the hell ( it was there yesterday ?!?!? ).

Reason: 3 snails, plump with minty fresh breath.

You need some lizards, Blue tongues are very good for getting rid of snails.
