I strongly suspect that the invisible “elves” are in fact local nimbys doing their foul deeds under the cover of darkness.

Magnus Skarphedinsson, the headmaster, a rotund, ebullient chap who ate large quantities of breakfast cereal during my one-on-one lesson, had regrettably never seen an elf himself although he did own an old cooking pot that apparently had once made stews in an elf kitchen before the bottom rusted away. Settled science.

Time to give three Hail Marys. Warming up three regulation NFL footballs for the sacrifice!

In Iceland they have elves. In the USA we have sage grouse and snail darters.

campaigners warned that it would disturb elves living in its path Pretty much just as mythical as most of the "endangered species" our own "campaigners" go on about.

History proves that Elves were brought to Ireland from Iceland by Vikings. 1,000 tears later elves migrated from Ireland to Hollywood, then to Hawaii as meinhunies.
Leif Ericsonn was an elf, as was his father Eric the Red Elf.

You spray for elves before starting any major construction project, so what’s the problem?

The Irish (until recently, I fear) have the same reluctance to disturb "fairy forts" and "fairy rings" and other assorted landmarks with "supernatural" connections. This folklore has fortunately preserved an astounding wealth of ancient and prehistoric artifacts.
Sadly, flooded with euros from Brussels, the Irish raced headlong to prove how far they've come from their superstitious past (only a few decades ago really) and are busy knocking over iron age and bronze age ruins with abandon.
Up Ireland, I mean, Go Ireland!

Did they enter Iceland legally? How can they be tax-farmed to support welfare programs?
