Close the real segment $[-R,R]$ by an anticlockwise semicircle in the upper half-plane. For $F(z)=1/[(z^2+1)(z^2+4)]$, the contour integral over the arc is $O(R^{-3})$: its length is $\pi R$, whereas $|z^2+1|\ge R^2-1$ and $|z^2+4|\ge R^2-4$. The enclosed simple poles are $i$ and $2i$, with residuesLetting $R\to \infty$ in the residue theorem yields
