Dan McCarty wote: >I would be curious about the pepper percentage in the bear sprays. The pepper spray I have reads "oleoresin capsicum 10% ( 1% capsaicin )". My can of spray says it is gauranteed. Upon closer reading, it is the percentage of pepper they gaurantee not whether or not it will work in deterring bears. Does anyone know if pepper spray expires? It does not say anything on any of the cans I have. I was told to replace it every three years to ensure it works properly but have never read anything to back this up.
