Hawks help to keep seats clean for Oxford United fans
After the pigeon population exploded at Oxford United Football Club the management knew they had to take action.
Fans were being affected with some having to move seats due to pigeon mess, despite the seats being cleaned a few hours earlier. The problem came to a head during ‘sell out’ matches when there were no spare seats to move supporters to.
The solution is flying Harris hawks to scare and unsettle the pigeons and it’s proving a huge success.
