Abstract
A container holder for air freshener, deodorizer or other conventional household aerosol cans. The container holder is wall mountable and comprises a holder body into which the container is placed and a cover portion which is slideably mounted onto the holder body. As the cover is pushed in the downward direction a tongue located on the inside surface of the cover top causes the container valve to actuate releasing a spray of the container contents into the environment. Upon release of the cover, the cover springs upward to its rest position causing the container valve to shut.
