I skin mine out right away,and if Im not readt to clean it then I wrap it in trash bags and put in my deep freezer. I clean mine using beetles. It can be a lot of work keeping a colony going but, they do a better job of cleaning the skull and aren't as hard on the skull and teeth as boiling.I'm doing a boar head for my buddy right now with them and I've done several coyotes,bobcats,and badgers for my self.

After I degrease the skull,I use a mixture of 40% peroxide and Clairol Basic White to whiten them. You can get both of them at a Hair supply chain,such as Sallys. I mix it up about the thickness of Mayonois and brush it on the skull and then wrap it in a clear plastic bag and let it sit in the sun for a few days and then rinse it off. Should come out really white if not I just put some more on and let sit a few more days.
