1. An electric blower configured to blow air, comprising:
a body configured such that a sprayer attachment is attachable to the body, the sprayer attachment including a container configured to store a liquid, a nozzle having a discharge opening, and a liquid supply passage connected to the container and the nozzle and configured to transport the liquid from the container to the nozzle;
a motor; and
a fan configured to be rotated by the motor and to blow air from the discharge opening of the nozzle when the sprayer attachment is attached to the body,
wherein:
the body includes:
a housing part (i) that houses the motor and the fan, (ii) extending along a rotation axis of the motor and the fan that defines a front-rear direction of the blower, and (iii) having a nozzle-mounting part to which the nozzle is attachable at a front end of the housing part in the front-rear direction;
a grip part (i) configured to be held by a user, (ii) protruding from the housing part generally in an up-down direction of the blower that is perpendicular to the front-rear direction and (iii) having an upper end connected to the housing part and a lower free end spaced from the housing part in the up-down direction; and
a battery-mounting part (i) connected to the lower free end of the grip part, (ii) spaced from the housing part, (iii) configured to removably receive a battery for supplying power to the motor, and (iv) having at least one container-mounting part to which the container is attachable;
the container has (i) a container longitudinal axis, (ii) a first closed axial end and (iii) a second open axial end; and
the at least one container-mounting part is configured to removably receive the container such that, when the container is attached to the at least one container-mounting part, the container longitudinal axis is generally in the up-down direction and the second open axial end is directed upward in the up-down direction.
