When it comes to your personal safety, sometimes the most basic tool can be invaluable. First, it is important that you understand that you are the one in control of your personal protection. Yes, there is always the police, but more times than not they are not around when you need them. This is why it is up to you to make sure that you are carrying some type of personal security alarm.
Personal Security Alarms are an effective yet inexpensive personal safety tool. When activated there 120db or more alarm will alert everyone in the area.

One of my favorite personal security alarms is the Keychain Alarm w/Light. This handy little 130db alarm is goes right on your keychain and has abuilt in LED light that will help you find those evasive keyholes on a dark night.
Another really popular personal security alarm is the Electronic Whistle. The wonderful thing about this whistle is that you do not even have to blow it. It is electronic and it can be carried in your pocket or used as a key chain. The Electronic Whistle is four inches long and emits a 120-db whistle for however long you hold the button in for. This whistle is not only great for avoiding personal attacks but for use as a locator in emergencies such as earthquakes.
The Door Stop Alarm is another favorite of many people. Simply place it in front of your door and the Door Stop Alarm will prevent the door from being opened while setting off a 120-db alarm. The alarm will automatically shut off when the pressure from the door is removed. It can also works as a nice door jam. Place one on the floor for your bedroom door or your front door and you will finally be able and ready to sleep soundly at night.
The Screecher Aerosol Alarm sounds off an ear piercing sound that can be heard up to ΒΌ mile away. This is a small enough size that it can easily be placed into a purse or kept in a pocket. To activate the alarm you simply have to push down on the top. Each alarm will contain about thirty short alarm blasts.
