Abstract

A system for repelling sharks and protecting humans comprises a new wetsuit composition 100 made of a first layer 110 of neoprene, a weave 120 made of a plurality of layers comprising ultra high molecular weight polyethylene, the weave useful for stopping shark teeth. A layer of denatonium benzoate 130 may be placed between the weave 120 and a second layer 140 of neoprene and the second layer 140 of neoprene may have an outer surface 144 coated with pigment or material having a bright color, such as yellow, orange or pink. The new wetsuit composition is sometimes used with a new shark repellant 200 comprising three parts red wine vinegar to one part of a specially processed habanero pepper mixture. The new shark repellant may be stored and propelled by use of a variety of implements, including a disclosed squirt device 400.
