Introduction: Homemade Pepper Spray

do you live in a dangerous part of town? do bullies at school pick on you? have you ever gotten mugged by a crazed clown? if your answer is yes to any of these, you need your very own homemade pepper spray! This pepper spray is very easy to make and is the perfect, over the counter, self defense weapon! side effects may include blindness, blurriness of vision, loss of vision for no more than twenty seconds, irritation of skin, and coughing. If you experience an erection lasting more than 4 hours please contact your doctor immedialty.

Step 1: Safety and What You Will Need

first let me say that a pepper spray is a self defense weapon, and you should not abuse it. You do not go around giving people mace in the face, as fun as it is. Use your pepper spray only when it is justified (i.e. your getting robbed, your being beat up, a republican slept with your wife), ok so the last part is a joke.

you will need

1. Peppers, i used chili peppers as they seem to be the hottest of all peppers
2. Black, tabletop pepper, added for coughing effect
3. Water
4. Something to brew the spray in
5. a container for the finished product
6. something to crush the pepper (not pictured)
7. funnel (not pictured and optional if you dont mind making a huge mess)
8. goggles, safety only, optional

Step 2: Add the Peppers

get about enough water so that when you add the peppers, their just barely floating. With some sort of spoon or something else, crush the peppers until all the seeds come out. After that you can add some black peppers.

Step 3: Fill Up With Water and Heat It Up

fill the container up with water and put it in a microwave. You may also boil the water, as that may be more effective.

Step 4: Pour Solution Into Bottle for Spraying

use a funnel, hopefully, and pour it into the bottle. Find a small, concealable bottle, preferably one that will continue spraying when trigger is held.

Step 5: You're Done

well thats it thats how you make pepper spray its effective for up to two weeks. Have fun spraying, try not to blind yourself.

    NO!! Please change or delete your post! Ammonia and Bleach disolve fat since they are so alkaline, you will make the person permanently blind! Do not ever attempt to make a spray with these chemicals!

    Right, ammonia is just enough to permanently blind someone.

    if a man dares to hurt me or rape me then I would do everything I could and if he goes blind he deserves it. He's evil and should be punished. If he's blind he will never do it again that's for sure.

    Agreed, I want my wife and daughter to be able to protect themselves they would not want to take someone's life and a knife would be backup to the pepper spray in case that does not subdue them. We should all carry/practive some type of deterrent there are just too many crazy people out there and you never know when they are going to crack...

    someone is trying to KILL you and you're worried about making them permanently blind? I say good, then they can't hurt someone else

    Ammonia and bleach are household chemicals and if someone wants to do you bodily harm, this is certainly the least you or someone else can defend themselves with.

    Ammonia uncut can cause blindness so It would be used sparingly mostly for irritant purposes.

    Bleach will cause temporary blindness as labeled on the bottle and obviously permanently stain/damage the perp's cloths an added benefit to such a recipe/formula.

    "Dissolving fat" not sure if you've looked around but most 'mericans have enough fat to spare especially if they are trying to do something bad to your wife/girlfriend.

    My 4 cents.

    For people who say they don't care if they blind their attacker! Sure I am in total agreement. BUT there is a good chance that the pepper spray can also get in your own eyes and others you may not intentionally mean to harm whilst using it in the kerfuffle of defence!!

    You are of course correct, which is why it is best for pepper spray to have a thickened consistency. All pro versions have a thickening agent to stop any down wind fallout so to speak.

    I am thinking about making a tutorial myself......I know a lot about making devices such as this, and my version is (not to be rude to this publisher, but) a lot more effective.

    It requires a few basic skills but the end result is fantastic......give me a week or two to get the stuff together I need, I am not exactly sure how long it takes to make a tutorial but I will get it done. If only to help people who deserve to have the means of defending themselves but are prohibited from doing so by the pathetic government!

    That’s why the peppers should be crushed down to the seeds before being wet so that it thickens.

    It won’t last long without a small capful of vinegar to keep the chemical reaction from the vapors going.
