Simple Personal Protection Items



Did you know that simple items in your pocket or bag can be very useful when you are suddenly attacked? If you do not look to tools such as tasers, stun guns or pepper sprays to be safe, simple things such as keys, pencils and spare change could prove to be your best friends in an emergency.

Wondering how?

Your keys are the most effective tools at hand when it comes to protecting yourself from an attacker. Just pull them out of your pocket or purse, and use them to stab the attacker in the throat and eyes. This does not cause permanent damage, but it is enough to stun an attacker giving you time to escape. Pencils, rulers and pens can also work, instead of keys.

If you have a little loose change, this is the time to put it to use. Grab as much as possible in your hand and throw it on the face of the attacker. This will throw them off guard and give you time to run away from the spot.

Any aerosol spray in your purse can prove to be as useful as pepper spray when you are in the face of danger. Pull it out of your bag and spray it at the face of the attacker and run away before they can realize what is happening.
