Thank you for giving us a look!   A 50% deposit is now required on all orders. A $ 25.00 fee will be added on mounts received with skin and meat. Perhaps my little friends can help Normal turn around time is 3-4 months, longer for larger skulls, so please be patient. F.A.Q.

The use of Dermestid Beetles for this kind of work has been around for nearly a 100 years.  They are very thorough in cleaning, and when the entire process is complete, you are left with a safe and sanitary skull or skeleton.  Something you will be proud to hang on the wall or set on the desk.

We specialize in European mounts, if you have a need for our service, don't be afraid to contact us, the prices won't change if your a hunter, taxidermist, collector, or educator.  We also provide service for articulated and disarticulated specimens.

One of the ways to clean a skull was to boil it.  This in it's self can be a mess.  Too often the skull will fall apart, teeth will break and the detail will be lost.  The time spent reassembling, sometimes is just not worth the effort.

We believe you will be more than satisfied with the quality and our prices.  You can be confident, we will do everything possible to maintain the natural integrity of the bone, teeth and color.  Every specimen will be tagged as soon as it arrives, it will also be checked and noted for any damages that may have accrued during shipment.   Please be aware that there can be natural defects, not detected until the beetles are finished.  We do not boil, degreasing and whitening are done statically.  At no time do the solutions rise above room temperature.
