“The great part is, when you spray, it will go 20 to 25 feet,” Zeins added. An intruder hit with the spray will be temporarily blinded. Please check your state and local laws on the legality of using these sprays for self-defense.
Can envision it now. You wake up startled by an intruder in your room, you fumble around and find your can of wasp spray, you fumble trying to get the cap off, as he is upon you with his knife out you spray yourself in the face with wasp spray and pass out. You awake naked feeling violated and call the police. The police arrive and take your report, but before he departs he handcuffs you and takes you down to the station for booking for a felony violation of EPA regulations concerning the misuse of insecticides.
After an experience this morning I sure wouldn't want Wasp Spray as my weapon of choice. I was doing some yard work at my Moms yesterday and discovered a Yellow jacket nest in the ground before they found me. I went to Wally World and the only brand they had was Hot Shot. I sprayed the hole. This morning I went and bought another can. They were still coming in and out of the hole so I sprayed again. The blasted can failed. Nothing but a small stream.
I went to a grocery store and bought some Raid wasp and hornet spray. I used it. This afternoon some were still going in and out. I want a firearm if I feel my life is in danger. You get multiple chances with one.
