Blog- on how to fight crime

The world today is very different than it was a generation ago. Women are celebrated, children are given more freedom, and senior citizens have more independence. While these things are positive, they also come with increased risks of danger, such as becoming the victims of attacks. The need for a method of modern self defense has never been greater.

​

Pepper sprays are self-defence products that are extremely effective, easy for anyone to use, affordable, and available almost everywhere. Police departments and military forces all over the world are trained in the use of pepper sprays, so clearly it is a smart way to protect oneself.

​

Essentially, pepper spray works by causing a heavy-duty combination of uncomfortable heat, excessive tears, pain and burning, and temporary blindness in attackers. The effects are short-lived but kick in immediately and in a strong way, buying the victim a few precious seconds to get to safety.

​

Carriers of pepper spray self-defence products do not need any special skills or additional equipment to use it, just a general understanding. Most retailers of pepper spray such as Devil Will Cry in Noida, UP, India offer instructions or tutorials, and some may even demonstrate or allow practice shots. The canisters generally have a wide spray that can reach anywhere from six to 15 feet away, so distance or accuracy are not a huge concern. Even if the attacker is hit in only part of the face, the effects will allow the victim to get further away. The pepper spray usually delivers short bursts that last about a second, so one canister can be used several times, making it ideal if there are multiple attackers or one shot simply wasn't enough.

When thinking about different modern self defense options, pepper sprays should be a top consideration. They can (and do!) literally save lives.
