Among the tools and devices that have been invented for self-defense, pepper foam is one that has revolutionized the concept. The item is basically a spray that consists of 10% pepper and foam. Together these two components form a powerful combination that could be a good deterrent against any type of attack. The foam becomes thick with the addition of pepper and it covers the mouth, face and eyes of the attacker. Since the attacker is no more able to see clearly, he will obviously try to wipe out the foam. Unfortunately for him, his tries will result in pepper going into his eyes and nose.

The law enforcing agencies often use mace pepper foam that is used to identify the attacker quickly and faultlessly.

Use of the pepper foam is mostly made in form of mace pepper spray. You can buy the product or order online for it. However, there is one small problem. If you belong to New York, Massachusetts, or Wisconsin, the pepper sprays cannot be shipped to you. For all other places in United States, the shipping is free if the transaction values $100 or more. There may be a shipping charge of $6-$7 if the transaction is less than $100.

Its ease of use makes mace pepper foam one of the best and most popular self defense products. A mace can spray pepper foam to a distance of 8-10 feet spraying five to eight one second bursts.
