Advice on how to deep clean an old deer shoulder mount to get rid of moths

I have a very old deer mount I got as a present from my grandpa like a decade ago, it was shot in 1981. It's been sitting in a basement for many years and I just discovered it has a moth infestation!!

I'm asking for advice on how to deep clean. A lot of the tips online say to put it in a freezer, but this is so large, it doesn't fit my freezer. I've been wanting to steam clean it and put it outside, but I'm afraid I will damage the fur heavily.

Any experts here that have tips on how to get rid of all the moths and larvae and eggs and give this deer a revival? It would be such a shame to lose this.

Mites/thrips on my dried & harvested plant. Smoke yes/no?

Growing a shady apple fritter auto from RQS, the plant was outdoors and took MONTHS to be ready (planted begin april, harvest last week). Was my first succeeded grow, with a lot of issues, so the plant was quite small. I didn’t have a proper dry room, so I hung the full plant upside down in a cardboard box with some holes in for airflow to keep humidity up. After 9 days, weed is feeling crisp enough to start the cure.

I trimmed fan and sugar leaves today, but on one nug I found a white small pest, and also some larger brown scaled adults. My phone isn’t good enough to take a picture.

Question: is it dangerous to smoke it or not?

More pistels forming

I need some troubleshooting. This is an apple fritter auto from RQS.

7-9 days ago when the heatwave began in Europe this plant started making some nanners. I took them out on day 3 and then didn't touch the plant again, just water with flowering nutrients. Now it seems to be making more white hairs again, especially at the bottom of the plant.
Trichomes appear to be clear, I'm looking with a 30x jewelers loop (def not easy to see ha!)

Should I still wait with harvesting?

Small leaf burn of the tips

Update on the same plant see here. It’s showing super small leaf burn on the very tips of the some leaves, mostly the leaves at the top of the plant. In some leaves it also kind of looks less green/yellow/brown shades

Apple fritter from royal queen seeds grown in soil outdoors. I’ve introduced some PK the past 2 weeks (2 out of 3 Waterings with, 1 just plain water). And added a few cm of soil to the top The weather has been 18 degree with rain

Leafs curling upwards close to harvest

The leafs started curling upwards, mostly towards the top. I think it’s an Apple fritter seed from zamnesia. Plant looks healthy to me otherwise. We’re going through a heat wave since a few days, but the plant has always been outside in the same spot. Any idea if its an issue that needs treatment?

The auto isnt super big, it’s my first grow and i started the seed in another container before transplanting to the final one.

Also, if you have ideas in how long this plant needs until harvest, please share :):)
