What is Mace defensive spray?
All Mace has at least 10 or 15% pepper and at least 2 million scoville heat units, the most powerful allowed by law. Mace defensive spray is a type of pepper spray dispensed under pressure, like from a can. Mace is actually a brand name but it has become the word people use as a general term for many defensive products that come in a can, or as a gas, or foam.
Mace is a defensive pepper spray, which is an inflammatory, causing restricted breathing and a severe burning sensation in the eyes. It is developed from the same substance that makes hot peppers hot. In fact, it’s millions of times hotter than a jalapeno pepper! On the Scoville Hotness Scale (a measurement used to compare the hotness of things like peppers), a jalapeno is 25000 units while Mace defensive spray can be as hot as 2 million units! That’s hot… and you can be sure it’s effective!
