New “pest spraying” happening fairly regularly inside at work?

So my place of employment recently started spraying something (no idea what, a young man without uniform comes through the office with a 1-gallon unmarked sprayer) on baseboards. He says it's for pest control. There's no obvious odor or fumes from this. It's happened twice while I was on site, which is fairly rare for me, so I don't know how often this actually occurs. Is this an issue? I'm not particularly enthusiastic about an unknown chemical cocktail being aerosolized in offices my coworkers spend 50 or more hours a week in, because they don't get remote work like I do. I have a compromised immune system and a history of lung problems so I'm more sensitive to my environment than others.
