During the Middle Ages, Valerian was thought to be able to cure, or at least relieve, most illnesses and conditions. As well as its tranquilizing qualities (which some studies suggest are relatively equal to those of the pharmaceutical Valium), Valerian is extremely attractive to both cats and rats, to the point where it is considered an effective and safe catnip substitute. Legend has it that the Pied Piper of Hamlin supplemented his pipe-playing by loading his pockets with Valerian root, so as to lure rats away from towns.This product sold for aromatherapy purposes onlyPerfect for use with our Ceramic Oil Burners as well.
