Holyrood Workers Using Lightsabre Lasers In Force Against Pigeons
                     Holyrood Workers Using Lightsabre Lasers In Force Against Pigeons
With the release of the new Star Wars movie `Rise Of The Skywalker`, it seems everybody is 
getting caught up in the force of this blockbuster. Its influence has appeared in the most 
unexpected places. For instance, who could have imagined you would find Jedi weaponry being 
used in the Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh?
But that is exactly what’s happening, with the incredible news employees are being equipped 
with what can be described as lightsabre lasers. They have been handed out to deal with an 
enemy almost as nefarious as The Empire, an infestation of pigeons.
Handheld lasers were first used to ward off pigeons in 2015. However, contractors say, since 
the practice was re-introduced, alongside the use of hawks and falcons, sightings of pigeons at 
Holyrood have been greatly reduced.
The practice has seen their number fall to single digits. However, it has not gone without 
criticism from animal rights groups, who feel using lasers risks harming the birds or even 
blinding them. Although contractors maintain effects to decrease the population are handled 
humanely.
The pigeon problem is just the latest pest control issue to beset the Holyrood building since its 
opening 15 years ago. Despite costing £414million to build, the Scottish Parliament has 
reportedly been overrun with rats and insects in the past. They had to bring in pest control 
specialists on around 180 separate occasions in the space of five years.
You can be assured, when it comes to removing pests in the most efficient, humane way 
possible, Pest-Master Environmental Services is always on the cutting edge. If you are based in 
Glasgow and Lanarkshire, and facing an infestation, you will find us a force to be reconded with.
