How You Can Guard Yourself Without Direct Contact

By Kent A Wermer


Ladies prefer self defense pepper sprays since direct contact is not needed to be able to score against an assailant. I am aware most pepper sprays work coming from a distance of even several feet, however we're typically closer to the target and possess a better chance of utilizing one with maximum effect.

I got pepper spray because it is non-fatal. While its effects are quick, I know these are short-lived and there is never irreversible damage. I started off with a key chain self defense spray given that it is very portable, however I nearly balked the second I first used one.

My very own oz. pepper spray with a quick-releasing key chain had a robber screaming in pain the minute it hit his own face. His eyes closed rapidly, likely due to the rating 2 of million Scoville Heat Units of the formulation. That was just from a one-second burst. He wound up with a coughing jag, and I escaped to safety.

Marty, a childhood chum, had got me into defense sprays. She now lives in a different state. The very first time she utilized hers, she very nearly missed, and almost got walloped. She vowed to study its proper use quickly.

The oz. inert practice defensive spray she ordered didn't contain any real pepper formulation. This is water-based but pressurized with nitrogen so that is not advisable to use on others otherwise they get skin irritation. By using a practice spray, she mastered handling the spray and her aim.

I am seeking to replace my current defense spray. Fortunately, I met an "expert" that has had regular success with these. Gary said I might desire to try some pepper gel as it adheres to the skin the more you rub that off.

His 2 oz. pepper gel sticky pepper spray is an 18% pepper spray. This suggests far more intense heat from the pepper, so the better to stop an attacker.

Personal defense pepper sprays get my vote because I opt to protect myself by knocking somebody down from afar and then run to safety.
