Mine expires in August, 2014...I bought about two years ago. I've carried it in 90 degree heat. Never had to use it.

every bear spray i have ordered has had at least a 2 yr to 3 yr expiration date on them. i have used several different brands in the last 5 years. all have been used in 90 to 105 temps and all worked good .

They recommend 5 years at 50 degrees but the ones I received were already four years old and I don't know where they were stored. Be aware of this vendor.

It has an expiration date of a handful of years. But that doesn't mean it goes bad they just required to put an expiration date on all things. Excellent product though it has just about everything you'd need in an emergency situation. Highly recommend

I used mine up to a year after I bought them. The seller would have to tell you the expiration date. I do live Ina dry climate, but I would say as long as you properly stored them in a cool environment, 75 degrees Fahrenheit or less they should be just fine. Hope this helps.

mine says "Best if used by" which mean it doesn't really expire but it's gov't regulations. Realize it has salt which is a preservative! The date was 3yrs out. No question I'll use it- it goes on way more than meat and I cook a lot. The only thing that would ruin it is if it got moisture or another food got into it. Not likely to happen. If you don't want that much- give some away! I wish I had ordered more since my friends are not finding it in stores either.

Check with the manufacturer, but personally I wouldn't leave anything out in such heat.

The expiry date on my little packages, that I bought in the early summer, is 'sell by October 2013'. There is no use by date. I am storing them in a cool dark pantry and don't expect any issues for quite a long time. As long as they last until the cross-country running season is over:) Pretzels and nutella after a long fast run, yum!! BTW, I am food-safe certified and don't take foolish chances with food.

I don't think it will expire, but you can always contact the manufacture and ask.

There's actually no longer a shelf life listed. It was initially 3 years, then 5 years, and now Vestergaard of Switzerland (the manufacturer) has removed the notice completely. They were designed for use in African countries where the constant hot sun degrades any plastic, and the shelf life notice was created in case some users left them outside for years in the sun. Turns out it wasn't much of an issue to worry about, so the shelf life notice has been lifted. You can use it, store it, and use it again without problem. Just be sure it's totally dry inside before storing - in fact you can store it uncapped to be sure.

There should be an expiration date in the packaging. Using this product after expiration should not be dangerous but only decrease efficacy. So if you cannot find or read the date- it won't hurt to use it anyway!

They don't have an expected shelf life but they do put a "Best if used by" date on the package. I would think keeping them in a cool area out of direct sun will lengthen the live.

No expiration date. But I would suggest replacing the product after one year. After that the active ingredients begin to dissipate and become ineffective. You should store the product in a dry,cool place.

I bought mine in August, I believe, and it came with an expiration date of August 2017. The can states "do not store above 120 F or below 32 F".

There is a best if used by date on the bottom of every can. Not sure how you can determine the date before buying online but I'm sure if it arrives with an expired date you can return it. I've never had a problem with the date on the can even being close to expiration.
