It’s inexpensive, effective, legal and easy to use. Owning self defense products is like having car insurance. In a life threatening situation, it’s better to have pepper spray if needed. Than to need it and not have it. Most assaults take place suddenly and unexpectedly, and it can happen to anyone. Especially, an unprepared naive female college student. Wildfire pepper spray is an effective non-lethal personal protection product designed as a key chain or comes with holster clip for a belt. Carry this key chain pepper spray with you always, so that any attacker can be put down immediately; even if the thug is much bigger and more powerful than you.
If you never seen anyone get sprayed with Wildfire Pepper Spray, you’ll be amazed how quickly a large 250lb man will go down and stay down. The effects of a good blast from the dispenser are instantaneous and will incapacitate anyone for as long as 45 minutes, leaving no permanent damage and allowing you the time needed to escape and contact the police. Wildfire Pepper Spray contains an invisible UV Dye which is very helpful when making positive identification of the suspected attacker.

Always be aware of surroundings when parking car and remove visible electronics such as; laptops, ipods, mp3 players and GPS devices. It may seem like common sense but I’m always amazed what I can see inside neighbors vehicles that are parked next to me on the street. Criminals are desperate for quick cash and leaving these type items visible is just asking to be a Smash-n-Grab for criminals. And students, please don’t walk the campus or near by park areas at night with your music blasting through the ear-buds of your Ipod or MP3. Your just asking to be mugged or worse. Finally, when living in an urban area. It’s always a good idea to carry non-lethal personal protection such as a Pretender 4.5 Million Volt cell phone stun gun or Taser.

Carjacking of parked vehicles depends on the car owner being inattentive to their surroundings. Carjackers, like street robbers, prefer the element of surprise. Most victims say they never saw the carjacker until they appeared at their car door. To reduce your risk of being carjacked, we have listed some common sense steps below:
• Always park in well-lighted areas, if you plan to arrive/leave after dark
• Don’t park in isolated or visually obstructed areas near walls or heavy foliage
• Use valet parking or an attended garage, if you’re a woman driving alone
• As you walk to your car be alert to suspicious persons sitting in cars
• Ask for a security escort if you are alone at a shopping center
• Watch out for young makes loitering in the area (handing out flyers, etc)
• If someone tries to approach, change direction or run to a busy store
• Follow your instincts if they tell you to walk/run away to a busy place
• As you approach your vehicle, look under, around, and inside your car
• If safe, open the door, enter quickly, and lock the doors
• Don’t be a target by turning your back while loading packages into the car
• Make it your habit to always start your car and drive away immediately
• Teach and practice with your children to enter and exit the car quickly
• In the city, always drive with your car doors locked and windows rolled up
• When stopped in traffic, leave room to maneuver and escape, if necessary
• If you are bumped in traffic, by young makes, be suspicious of the accident
• Wave to follow, and drive to a gas station or busy place before getting out
• If you are ever confronted by an armed carjacker don’t resist
• Give up your keys or money if demanded without resistance
• Don’t argue, fight or chase the robber. You can be seriously injured
• Never agree to be kidnapped. Drop the cars keys and run and scream for help
• If you are forced to drive, consider crashing your car near a busy intersection so bystanders can come to your aid and call the police
• Call the police immediately to report the crime and provide detailed information
