>There have been a number of recommendations recently to apply Fumidil as a
spray (an off-label use as someone pointed out).

The recommendation is as a "drench," which does not cause appreciable
aerosol droplets.

Yes, Fumagillin is made from Aspergillus, but refined.  I haven't heard of
problems, but if there were, we would likely have seen problems previously
from people eating honey containing it.

That certainly isn't meant to imply a clean bill of health, just that other
data appear to be lacking.
