Pepper spray is an excellent choice for a self defense weapon. Stun guns and tasers are good mind you, it is just that the effects of pepper spray last much longer. An attacker will find that when they are sprayed they will have difficulty breathing, seeing, choking, and just all around being able to function. Not only that but they will feel like their skin is on fire because of the burning sensation produced by the Pepper Spray.
Pepper Spray is extremely easy to use. It is as simple as "Point - Press". Point it at an assailant's face and press the button. In addition to the ease of use it is also less expensive and most of the time just as effective. It has the capability of saving your life if you find yourself in a dangerous situation. A lot of people have used it to successfully get out of a bad scenario.
Compared to other deterrents, pepper spray is superior in many ways. For example, a stun gun will only work for a few moments by temporarily disabling the nervous and muscular system. Not only that, but in order for the stun gun to have any effect at all you must be in very close proximity to the attacker and you must be touching him with the stun gun.
Where as with pepper spray the effects will last MUCH longer! An attacker will not be able to see, he will be choking and gasping for air for up to a half an hour. This incapacitating effect for such a long time period gives you the time you need to remove yourself from the situation. And, even the smallest pepper spray canister can shoot up to 10 feet so that you can stay as far away from him as possible.
How many of us have taken a bite of a really hot pepper, maybe on a dare? Many of us remember how our nose started running right away and our eyes teared up and oh my gosh, the burning feeling in our mouth! Well that is what pepper spray is made from, cayenne pepper. Of course the level of cayenne pepper in pepper spray is much, much higher then in biting into one hot pepper. When sprayed in the face with this self defense spray an attacker will stop thinking about coming after you and try to figure out how to make his pain stop!
When pepper spray is introduced to the eyes of the attacker, it will cause the eyelids and surrounding skin to become very swollen and irritated.
