How To
How to use pepper spray in self-defense
To make sure that you don’t accidentally spray pepper spray in your face, gloves are the best option. This will help prevent accidental discharge from the gun.
The second thing to do when using pepper spray is to aim at the eyes. The eyes are the most sensitive part of the body and could be damaged if pepper spray is used. Aiming toward the nose is recommended because it will not burn as much as aiming directly into the eyes.
Pepper spray should be used with a tight grip. You need to hold the canister tightly in your hand so that it doesn't fall open. The trigger should be pressed slowly when you are ready to fire. Keep the trigger down so that pepper spray doesn't go off.
Pepper spray works best when sprayed directly into the eyes. If you are unable to reach the eyes, spray the pepper spray on the nose.
Once pepper spray is applied, the attacker will feel extremely uncomfortable. You may notice that you feel nauseated and dizzy. He/she may also experience burning and intense itching sensations.
Once the attacker is unconscious, you must quickly get to safety. Don't let him/her get near you again. Notify the police immediately.
