PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a squeeze type spray container which can produce a foamed substance from liquid content and air and instantaneously spray it to a distance and over a wide area when the container is squeezed, by specifying the volumetric mixing ratio of liquid to air of the foamed substance and the diameter of a nozzle. SOLUTION: When the body of a container main body of a squeeze type spray container 1 is squeezed, a liquid content and air in the container main body are respectively led to a liquid-gas mixing chamber 13 through a liquid inlet path 11 and an air inlet path 12 of a foamed substance sprayer 10. As a result, a foamed substance is produced through a net element 14 and sprayed outside from a spray nozzle 16 through a delivery path 15. The volumetric gas-liquid mixing ratio of the foamed substance [volume of foamed substance/(weight of foamed substance/density of foamed substance)] is specified within a range of 2-12. The diameter of spray nozzle is specified within a range of 0.3-3.0mm. Thereby the foamed substance is instantaneously sprayed to a distance and over a wide area.
