But, alongside shampoo and toothpaste, the chain has in recent weeks started selling what it describes as an "animal deterrent spray". It is also of questionable legality to use pepper spray against another human in Germany. "Pepper spray is essentially something used against humans," the spokesperson said. We don’t sell batons or pistols, or pepper spray - we leave these products to specialists."
