Pepper sprays and Mace are effective self defense tools. Pepper Shot Pepper spray or Mace enables you to defend yourself while keeping a safe distance from an attacker. A one second burst to the face will cause temporary blindness, choking, coughing, and nausea-bringing the attacker to his knees. In addition to causing an attacker pain, pepper sprays or Mace swell the mucous membranes, which makes breathing difficult, and swells the veins in the eyes, causing the eyes to close. These effects last 20-30 minutes and cause no permanent damage. All pepper sprays, pepper foam and pepper gel have locking actuators for extra safety. They are available in many different forms, such as Pepper Shot pepper spray, keychain pepper spray, Mace, pepper foam, pepper fogger, discreet pepper Pager, and even the highly effective Mace Pepper Gel, which sticks to your attacker like glue!
