In the event of an attack the last thing the assailant is thinking about is any resistance from the victim. Imagine his surprise when you pull out a pen or pager look alike and give him a spritz in the face with some 10% pepper spray.

Believe it or not, when it comes to affordable, easy to use and effective non-lethal self defense weapons, pepper spray is right up there at the top of list. Male or female, children or adults, stronger or weaker-anybody can use pepper spray for self defense a variety of situations. For example, women and girls who have always been vulnerable to attacks can now feel safer by carrying a pepper spray.

Pepper spray uses Oleoresin Capsicum (OC) which comes from cayenne pepper. Defensive pepper sprays are measured in Scoville Heat Units (SHU's) a common measure of a products' "hotness". A jalapeno pepper has an SHU of 5000, a habanero pepper 300,000 and a typical pepper spray will be in the 2 million SHU range.

A one second spray in the face with a 10 % solution of a pepper spray will get you 20-30 minutes away from an attacker. It will cause the attacker to have shortness of breathe, have temporary blindness due to excessive tearing and the eyes actually shutting down, coughing and choking. He will scream from the pain. That is why it has become one of the most effective women's self defense items and crime prevention tools.

A violent crime occurs every 19 seconds and an assault every 29 seconds. For would be victims of a robbery, assault, theft, rape, murder, or kidnapping an investment of $15- $25 for a pepper spray is certainly worth the peace of mind and sense of security it provides. No one is safe from the crimes of today be it a personal assault or a home break in.

Women are particularly vulnerable, especially those who work late at night, those in sales positions, real estate agents, and those who live alone. They in particular need self defense products such as an effective OC pepper spray.

The pepper spray pager and pepper spray pen are two outstanding disguised non lethal defensive weapons that can save your life in an attack situation by providing the element of surprise with a healthy dose of OC spray. They both use a 10 % spray and have a range of up to 6-8 feet.

Please Note. Even though pepper spray is legal in all 50 states, some states and cities have restrictions. Check with your local police department. Literally thousands of police departments carry and use pepper spray. Why wouldn't you?

Chances are very good that you are reading this because in some way crime has touched your life or you want to be proactive and protect yourself, family, home, or business from the ravages of crime. That is the first step.
