  • the mean particle size of the spray droplets may be in the range of from about 10 ⁇ m to about 100 ⁇ m, or from about 20 ⁇ m to about 60 ⁇ m. These size droplets may be useful in the case of air freshening compositions in which it is desired to suspend the droplets in the air for prolonged periods.
  • the sprayer actuator 24 comprises a trigger 28 operatively associated with the actuator housing 26 at the front of said sprayer.
  • the trigger 28 is also ergonomically designed.
  • the trigger 28 is ergonomic in that it is relatively long, flat, and wide. This permits the user to not only activate the trigger with one finger, such as the user's index finger; it also allows the user to use two or more fingers (such as their index and middle fingers) to activate the trigger 28 . This reduces fatigue on the user's index finger in the case of prolonged spraying.
  • the trigger 28 can have any suitable dimensions. In certain embodiments, the trigger can have a length, L, of greater than or equal to about 1.25 inches (about 30 or 32 mm).
