I suppose that's better than nothing. However, defense experts all strongly advise against wasp spray. Do a google search of wasp spray for self defense and you'll see what I mean.
I did. Thanks. I believe that I saw an episode on one of the cop shows where a guy sprayed his attacker with bear spray. He either got in trouble or almost got in trouble, I can’t remember which.
Maybe just hit them in the noggin with the spray can? Decisions...decisions.
The main ingredient of pepper spray is capsaicin, an oil extracted from chili peppers which temporarily causes severe irritation of the eyes and lungs, producing a strong burning sensation and difficulty breathing.
Wasp sprays consist of one or more insecticides such as pyrethrum or propoxur. While the toxic side-effects of such chemicals do, in fact, include eye and lung irritation in humans, they are chemical poisons, the main purpose of which is killing pests.
So if you successfully defend yourself with wasp spray against a swarm of "Teens" the federal Just-Us department will come down on you in a Zimmermanesque manner.
