Wasp Spray for when TSHTF ??
I just got this in an email. I guess I should do a little research to see if it's true before I post, but I'm feeling too lazy right now..Anyway, just passing it along...

Email in bold:

Subject: Wasp Spray


I know some of you own GUNS but this is something to think about...---

If you don't have a gun, here's a more humane way to wreck someone's evil plans for you. Did you know this? I didn't. I never really thought of it before. I guess I can get rid of the baseball bat.

Wasp Spray- A friend who is a receptionist in a church in a high risk area was concerned about someone coming into the office on Monday to rob them when they were counting the collection. She asked the local 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. Thought this was interesting and might be of use.

On the heels of a break in and beating that left an elderly woman in Toledo dead, self-defense experts have a tip that could save your life.

Val Glinka teaches self-defense to students at Sylvania Southview High School . For decades, he's suggested putting a can of wasp and hornet spray near your door or bed.

Glinka says, "This is better than anything I can teach them."

Glinka considers it inexpensive, easy to find, and more effective than mace or pepper spray. The cans typically shoot 20 to 30 feet; so if someone tries to break into your home, Glinka says "spray the culprit in the eyes". It's a tip he's given to students for decades.

It's also one he wants everyone to hear. If you're looking for protection, Glinka says look to the spray. "That's going to give you a chance to call the police; maybe get out." Maybe even save a life.

Please share this with all the people who are precious to your life

Did you also know that wasp spray will kill a snake? And a mouse! It will! Good to know, huh? It will also kill a wasp.!!!!

Re: Wasp Spray for when TSHTF ??
yes, I heard this too. I bought 3 cans when on sale. I imagine it would "put a hurtin'" if sprayed in the eyes. Have you seen wasp spray on a nest? it dissolves it! now imagine it on the eyes!tomato

I've heard of that before, but I have a better and more effective deterrent:

I LOVE THAT PIC MAN !!

augggggggh
Each time a person stands for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he or she sends forth a tiny ripple of hope. And crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance. Few are willing to embrace the disapproval of their fellows, the censure of their colleagues, the wrath of their society. Moral courage is a rarer commodity than bravery in battle or great intelligence. Yet it is the one essential vital quality for those who seek to change a world that yields most painfully to change.

I'm gonna get some. Because I was thinking, what would be the perfect silent weapon? A bow/arrow would work but take me a while to get to it.

So ehhh....Wasp Spray for now.

Wasp Spray doesn't Burn the Eye's, its bullshit. If it was in your eye's you can wash it out easily.

When I had carpenter bees in my backyard, their all dead now, I would buy starting fluid and light the stream with a cigarette lighter...the flame shoots about 20' and singes their wings and they hit the ground...then just step on them...I'm sure it would be effective for would be attackers, and if they get away just tell the cops to look for the dude with melted hair and no eyebrows...

I've always heard Snopes is controlled by TPTB ---they caution against wasp spray because it "might be more harmful than pepper spray" and the label on the can says it is not to be used in any way other than its intended purpose. LOL!

Wasp spray is a great item to use in order to enable you to get to your gun, get out of the house and call the police.

Pepper spray is not as effective in stopping someone high on drugs (often it even takes more bullets to do that), the fine mist of pepper spray can blow back at YOU as opposed to the heavier foamy wasp spray, and finally--don't you WANT to stop or even hurt some asshole who is trying to harm you?

I keep 4 or 5 cans throughout the house (near front door, back door, bathroom, bedroom) and take one out to the car when I am driving.

Your bow and arrows might not be quickly reachable and using wasp spray gives you time to get to a weapon and/or get out.

Now they say it is illegal to spray on their eyes even if your own house because it states on the can.

If he has permanant eye damage, he will sue You.
