DERMESTID BEETLES

DERMESTID BEETLES

Click Image For a Larger View


Dermestes maculatus,
Production

There are many ways to clean a skull, but the use of dermestid beetles is by far the best. Not only do these little guys help preserve all the finest details of a specimen, they also insure that every last tidbit of tissue is removed. Dermestid beetles, or Dermestes maculatus, are a natural decomposer. Their job is to help the process of rotting and decomposition, providing rich nutrients back to the soil as well as keeping our world free of carcasses. Here at Skulls Unlimited, the dermestid is one of our hardest working employees. They live and breathe their job, often working for 4 to 5 months non-stop for little more than room and board.

1. Favorite musical genre: The Beatles

2. Favorite movie: A Bug's Life

3. Favorite book: An Inordinate Fondness for Beetles by Evans and Bellamy

4. Favorite skull: Any skull with tissue on it...yum!

5. Favorite quote: "The sense of death is most in apprehension, and the poor beetle that we tread upon in corporal sufferance finds a pang as great as when a giant dies." William Shakespeare

6. Birth state: Oklahoma born and bred.

7. Favorite sports team: None, they might step on us.

8. If you could meet anyone, living or dead, who would it be? We plan to meet everyone....eventually.

9. If you didn't work at Skulls Unlimited, where would you be? Scavenging road kill.

10. Pets: None, they might eat us.
