The present invention provides an integrated cover and aerosol activator for an aerosol spray container so that the cover does not have to be removed from the container in order to actuate the aerosol activator. The combined cover-activator is also provided with an annular locking ring on the inside surface for engaging an annular lip on the container for locking the aerosol activator in engagement with the aerosol valve when it is actuated. The cover is also provided with spring members for allowing the aerosol activator to be moved in a substantially-vertical direction to vertically move and actuate the stem of the aerosol valve. In another form of the invention, one spring is provided for allowing the activator to be moved at an angle to bend and actuate the stem of the aerosol valve.
