Abstract
The present invention is a safety guard comprising a pair of opposed cups adapted to receive the opposite ends of the aerosol container respectively. Each cup has an integral arm extending toward the opposite cup, each arm having a perpendicular flange. One of the flanges is formed with an opening for receiving a portion of the other arm, the flanges adapted to engage each other and having apertures aligned when the flanges are together. The apertures are adapted to receive the shackle of a padlock to lock the guard installed over an aerosol container in a way which may be removed only by authorized cognitive persons.
