Abstract: The presently-disclosed subject matter includes valve covers. The valve covers can protect valves from exposure as well as from tampering. In some embodiments the valve cover comprises a cap that includes a top end and a side wall that is substantially cylindrical. Embodiments of valve covers also include a plug on an interior side of the top end of the cap that projects toward the opening of the cap. When the valve cover is installed, the plug can extend beyond an opening of the valve.

Abstract: Provided herein are an article and method for securing a fluid container. The article includes a tamper evident cap, comprising a head section including an inner surface, an outer surface, and a tab; and a tail section including tapered members extending therefrom. The inner surface is arranged and disposed to receive a valve or opening therein and the tail section is arranged and disposed to engage the tab. The method includes providing a tamper evident cap comprising a head section including an inner surface, an outer surface, and a tab, and a tail section including tapered members extending therefrom; positioning the inner surface of the head section over a valve or opening of the fluid container; passing the tail section through or around a portion of the fluid container; and inserting the tail section into an opening in the tab.
