About Us
Jerry's Skull Cleaning is one of the largest skull cleaners in the Midwest. We give you years of experience and a fast turn-around, all at affordable prices. Our beetle colonies are active year round and are so large that your average whitetail will be stripped of meat in roughly 24 hours. We serve all people in need of skull cleaning services and offer wholesale services as well.
Dermestid Beetles
Cleanest Clean
We use dermestid beetles to give you the highest quality European mount. They are the most effective way to clean skulls. Dermestid beetles are able to remove the meat inside and out and do no harm to the small bones or paper thin nasal bones. Our beetles like their skulls fresh as possible and not dried like others.
Whitening
Bright Future
We use the best whitening method in the industry, additive-free concentrated hydrogen peroxide. Additives and powders mixed with water or low grade hydrogen peroxide result in a skull that will start to flake within a few years of whitening. Our skulls will look good for generations to come.
Our Work
Bear
Skull + Mount
When it comes to bears and other game without horns or antlers, you don't have to decide between a skull or mount. Get Both! Just ask for your skull back from the taxidermist.

North American
From spike bulls to trophies, we use beetles for our elk skull cleaning. Our most memorable is an 11x12 once in a lifetime bull that measured 8' from base to tip and 54" wide.

Nasal Bones
Dermestid beetles can remove the hardest to reach pieces of meat and do no harm to the small bones or even the paper thin nasal bones.

Trapping
Bring your skulls from trapping in.

Don't forget about the birds. If you had a close head shot on a bird, the skull may be too damaged to do a skull mount with.
