    Wasp Spray

    I have a friend who is a receptionist in a church in a high risk area who was concerned about someone coming into the office on Monday to rob them when they were counting the collection. She asked the police department about using pepper spray and they recommended to her that she get a can of wasp spray instead. The wasp spray, they told her, can shoot up to twenty feet away and is a lot more accurate, while with the pepper spray they have to get too close to you and could overpower you. The wasp spray temporarily blinds an attacker until they get to the hospital for an antidote. She keeps a can on her desk in the office and it doesn't attract attention from people like a can of pepper spray would. She also keeps one nearby at home for home protection. You could also keep it in your car and it would be legal. I Thought this was interesting and it might be of use to lots of ladies...and men as well. Pass it on....

    Anyone have a can they can check to see if there is any kind of "Violation of Federal Law" warning?

    Poke a small hole in an egg, and drain the insides. Fill with pepper/red pepper/hot burning powders. Small piece of tape over the hole.

    Done.


    And as for Snopes; Who cares if it can be more harmful? Someone attacking my wife would get a bullet anyway. Why not wasp spray?
