In rural areas of Britain, the use of weapons for pest control is quite common. Air guns are particularly popular for control of small pests such as rats, rabbits and grey squirrels, because of their low power they can be used in more restrictive spaces such as gardens, where using a firearm would be unsafe.
Chemical pesticides date back 4,500 years, when the Sumerians used sulphur compounds as insecticides. The Rig Veda, which is about 4,000 years old, also mentions the use of poisonous plants for pest control.
