Try the "Buck Boiler".
Easy, peasy. Just follow the instructions.
A hundred bucks + shipping (and about five bucks worth of car wash quarters! LOL!) and you can Euro mount anything you kill!
If you boil the skull at to high a temperature, the skull bones will fall apart. The "Buck Boiler" holds the water at the perfect temperature.
I wrapped the base of the antlers in tin foil so they wouldn't discolor.
When the instructions say, "start with hot water", they ain't whistlin' Dixie! I didn't! Took half a day to get up to temperature.
Took about 36 to 48 hours to "cook" everything.
Then a trip to the car wash, unless you happen to own a power washer.
I tried the beetle method.
The beetles won't eat at low temperatures, to maintain the proper temperature for the beetles to remain active, the skull will become rancid before it's totally clean.
The "boil" method works best.
Beetles or boil, there will still be hand work to be done after the power wash.
