Wildfire 18% Pepper Spray

How to choose the right defense spray

Do you plan to carry the pepper spray on your person? If so, consideration should be taken regarding the size of the unit you choose. Keychain pepper sprays are easily carried and accessible since you can have your keys in your hand to and from your vehicle or residence.

If you are planning on carrying a unit while you exercise (such as walking, jogging, bicycling) you might want to consider a pepper spray with a belt clip. These are easily accessible if surprised by an attacker while you are out and about.

For home or auto use, there are several larger pepper spray models that contain more chemical and can be available to you whether you are on a long road trip or your vehicle breaks down.

If you would rather carry pepper spray in a covert canister, the pepper pen or pepper pager are perfect disguises for hiding the defense spray in plain sight.

How to use your pepper spray

First of all, your pepper spray will be rendered useless without Awareness. Whatever you do, don't become complacent in your surroundings. Too often we have tunnel vision and do not pay attention to what is going on around us because we are in a hurry. Always keep your pepper spray close by but be aware of the criminal who is looking for an easy target. They will be surprised when they get a good dose of 'fire' in their face.

When approached by an attacker, place the pepper spray in your dominant hand. Keep your non-shooting hand stretched out in front of you to keep distance from the attacker. Aim and spray towards the attacker's face while moving backwards away from them. At the same time yell 'HELP' or 'RAPE' as loud as you can so that attention is immediately diverted to your situation. Continue spraying or be ready to spray until the attacker has stopped advancing. Then at the first chance get away from there as fast as you can. Contact the police immediately!
