The large numbers of birds which used to fly over the refinery, seeking the heat from exposed pipework could become a threat for safety, especially as a result of their droppings. That\u2019s why between November 2015 and January 2016, picking up on the idea put forward by the Work Scheduling Manager, Vincenzo Risalvato, the Maintenance service engaged the services of a professional falconer with two of his birds.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4233 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sarlux.saras.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Raffineria-linee.jpg\" alt=\"Raffineria linee\" width=\"496\" height=\"332\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>These birds of prey, purposely fed just before being set free, played precise roles in scaring off the starlings. One went to the point usually frequented by the starlings, while the other flew round in circles, to scare the birds fear before they came close. That\u2019s why this system is known as \u201cnon-violent bird control\u201d: the fully-fed falcons don\u2019t attack the starlings, they only frighten them. But the result is the same \u2013 the starlings are kept away from the plant, in a non-violent way. This system has also been reported in a detailed article on daily paper \u201cL\u2019Unione Sarda\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; It\u2019s known as
