Something New in Self Defense

We all realize the importance of self defense in this scary world. But many of us have not learned even basic self defense techniques. The senior centers and the Y offer training for seniors that I feel is knowledge we should all have. Many of us don't want to take the time or money to learn self protection, but here's an idea. Keep a can of WASP SPRAY next to your bed or wherever you would keep pepper spray. A can of wasp spray will spray 20-30 feet and temporarily blind a person better than anything else, including pepper spray.

Yes, it will do this and much, much more. It will also kill a mouse, rat or a snake. I sure could have used this when I had my rat problem earlier in the year. And oh, yes, it will also kill wasps.

Obviously you can't carry a can of wasp spray around in purse, but how many of you carry pepper spray? I doubt many of you do. I don't. We all get complacent about selp protection. We feel we live in a safe area, and relatively speaking we do, but it doesn't hurt to have some protection. Just a reminder from time to time keeps us on our toes. Now, if you have wasp spray in your house, put it somewhere accessible so it's there if you need it and hope you never need it. (thank you Lynda for this information)
