    Can any one tell me how to clean a musk ox skull? I think I read that thy can be cleaned
    by using beetles, if so is there any precautionary measure that should be taken? Thanks Bill

    Bill, bugs will eat the horns, just the finish on them so be careful. What I do is skin them out really good, place on top of a bucket or pan so u can hold a little water, then bag em up real good and get somewhere hot 80+ for a week. You should be able to take it out and rinse everything off. Will need s soak in deodorizer.
