How to Store Taxidermy the Right Way

by | Mar 2, 2017 | Features

There comes a time in ones life when storing your taxidermy collection can be a relevant task that needs addressed. To help you out with this process, Dale Manning, owner of Custom Bird Works and The Big Game Connection in Missoula, MT offers a list of several suggestions that can make your taxidermy storage as easy, simple, and safe as possible.

Key Takeaways:

  • While displaying your trophy wall mounts can be a source of pride, a cross-country move or house renovation may lead to setting them aside for a period of time.
  • In addition to finding an indoor location, look for a spot without windows.
  • To protect from pests it’s best to include poison pellets in the crate and silica gel packets to wick away moisture

“Make sure any crates are stored off of the floor to avoid potential water damage. Keep liquids and heavy equipment or furniture that could fall over at a safe distance from the taxidermy pieces.”
