I used to work in the agriculture sector, and we had to fully suit up to spray anything whatsoever, even neem oil.
But there were good reasons for this:
1. Human error: If the last user didn't clean it properly, there could still be residue in the sprayer from a different (more dangerous) chemical. Or you may have accidentally added the wrong chemical.
2. Bad luck: You never know who's going to have an allergic reaction to something, like a dye or a surfactant in the product.
3. Liability: Future research may reveal risks that we do not currently know about (e.g., who knows, maybe people with prior exposure will turn out to be more likely to get long covid or some random thing like that). Requiring a suit for absolutely everything means your employer doesn't have to stress about future lawsuits over unknowns like these.
