Default Beetle cleaning skulls.

I am looking to get a bear hide that has been in the deep freeze for many years.Northern impressions is not doing them any more, so I am looking for some new ideas.I , of course, want a really good job done so I am looking for someone who is professional about it.
Thanks' in advance,
Ken

Your post is a bit confusing. The titles says you are looking for beetle skull cleaning but the post itself states that you have a frozen bear hide. I wouldn't use beetles on a hide.
