Skull “European” mounts for various species. Dermestid beetles are primarily used to delicately remove tissue while keeping the nasal cavity and sinuses intact. Our skulls aren’t cleaned with simmering, boiling or power washing which can destroy the sinuses and drive fat into the skull. This also eventually gives the skull a yellow color. Specializing in local game such as antelope, deer, elk, and bear. Includes thorough degreasing and whitening for that long term white color. Visit our gallery to view some of our work.

Note: Dermestid beetles and degreasing is time consuming. If you’re looking for a quick turn around in a few weeks then this is not an option for you. Turn around is typically 2-6 months depending on species.

Dermestid beetles can clean various bones and skulls. We offer skull and bone cleaning for discounted rates if no further services are required such as degreasing or whitening. Contact us for pricing and options.
