Crime has been on the rise during the past decade. Even in towns that have been traditionally crime-free, people are locking their doors, keeping their guard up and buying self-defense weapons.
Many of these folks are looking for weapons that are non-lethal. They don’t want to have guns in the house because of the danger of accidental shootings – especially when there are children around – and because most people don’t want to necessarily kill an intruder.
One powerful alternative to guns and other lethal weapons is Pepper Gel. People are familiar with pepper spray, which is an effective self-defense weapon. Now self-defense has moved forward further. Instead of a liquid-based pepper spray, MACE, the company who developed the first pepper spray, has now developed Mace Pepper Gel.
What makes Pepper Gel different or better? Since the pepper is suspended in the gel, there are several advantages. It sprays a longer distance than regular pepper spray. The pepper is stronger than regular pepper spray. In addition, the pepper gel sticks like glue, making it difficult, if not impossible, for an intruder or attacker to get it off easily. It is also less contaminating and it is non-flammable. It comes in two sizes and they can fit in a purse or pocket so it can be used easily in an emergency.
Mace Pepper Gel is packaged in containers that have safety features so that they are not accidentally sprayed. If used on a perpetrator, it will cause their eyes to close and burn, and it will burn the skin. It will also cause the individual to cough and choke. All of this will incapacitate and disorient the attacker long enough for you to get away and get help.
