An Article from the Book "A Poor Man's James Bond"

There are several eye and nose irritants on the market which can be easily
duplicated.
A good irritant is formaldehyde. Better known as embalming fluid, it
smells horrible, hurts the eyes and nose, and vaporises on exposure to air,
making a room uninhabitable for hours.
It can be squirted from a water pistol or nasal inhaler, poured on the
floor, or vaporised by a method described in the Stinkum phile.
Formaldehyde can be bougt at the drug store under the pretext of wanting it
to preserve mice or other laboratory specimens, and can probably be obtained
from your little brother's dissect-a-frog set.

The irritant mailmen use against dogs and which is sold for self defense is
oleoresid capsicum. Capsicum is the hot essence of red peppers. Oleoresin is
the process of extracting it. To extract the capsicum, grind up four ounces of
red pepper sees in a blender or with a mortar and pestle. Red pepper seeds are
bought in the grocer's.
The dry, ground seeds are then put into a coffee percolator in which there
are about 16 ounces of alcohol, preferably with the water distilled out. The
seeds are then percolated for about half an hour. The alcohol is then distilled
until there are only a couple of tablespoons of red liquid left in the flask.
The red liquid is then added to a half pint of light mineral oil, bought at a
drug store.
It can be sprayed from a nasal spray device. Another good way is with a
window cleaning sprayer (with a setting so you can make a mist or a straight
line of spray) bought at any dime store. The tube of the sprayer (removed from
the bottle) is cut to fit in a two ounce medicine bottle (or just steal a
perfume bottle, with everything fit in). This way you have enough of the goody
to last through a whole demonstration, no matter which side you're on! It is
also nice to keep by the door or your computer to repel intruders (Bell
security!).
Before using, the container should be given a phew shakes. Under
laboratory conditions all the oil is extracted from the seeds. But with my
Mickey Rat method a lot of is left in so the stuff is quite potent. Just be
sure you strain out any larger bits so the sprayer hole is not clogged.
The ground seeds left in the percolator are dried and saved. They are
great for throwing into the faces of people in a mob. if you really want a
laugh, then some broadcast from a theater balcony during the death scene in
"Love Story."
The gody called Mace is probably only acrolein. If not, it works just as
well as mace and is simple and fun to produce. It is the same product as
described on pages 104-106 of the Anarchist's Cookbook. Mine, however, is
broken down and simplified.
Acrolein is not toxic but causes horrible pain in the nose, copious tears,
and irritates the skin. A shot in the face from a water pistol or some other
sprayer will put anyone out of the game for at least half an hour.
Acrolein is best made an ounce at a time. Put in the flast 2 1/2 ounces of
glycerine and 3/4 ounces of sodium bisulfate (Sani-Flush), both of which can be
bought at any grocery store.
The still is set up with the outside tube connected as the fumes are bad.
When he mixture starts to bubble it must be watched constantly to make sure it
does not bubble up into the neck of the flask. If it starts for the neck of the
flask, remove the lamp until it settles in. If the lamp is too hot, the tin can
is raised on small blockes until the right heat is obtained.
Distill of an ounce of acrolein and take away the lamp. An ounce is all
this size batch is good for. Let the flask cool for an hour before opening and
cleaning. Pour the residue down the sink and wash everything the acrolein was in
contact with. The best squirter for the three irritants above is a water pistol.
Most water pistols leak badly so they must be transported barrel up so the goody
won't leak. A suggestion would be to alter them with a variable-density sprayer
(squirt or mist) in front and attempt to patch any leaks, and try to get a better
stopper for the barrel.
