If you want to remove dust, try a damp washcloth but go lightly on the cleaning. You do not want to dislodge the hairs, or the mount will end up looking like it was mangy.

There is no need to be concerned about germs, especially if the mount is more than at a few months old. Basically, once the hide is completely cured and dried, it's no different than having a fur coat hanging in your closet. For that matter, if in doubt ask your furrier what the recommended way to clean a rabbit-skin or fox hide coat is. Then follow those same guidelines for a deer mount.

Lastly, don't apply any polish or anything to the antlers and don't clean them with anything but a damp cloth. Otherwise, they may no longer look natural, which was the objective of the taxidermist. And it would dishonor the animal. The natural-looking mount is a time-honored tradition for honoring an especially notable game animal or bird.

If an animal has been mounted correctly the fur will not come out. The taxidermist I use instructed me not to wet the mount in any way. This will cause mold to form on the skin in turn ruining the mout. He said to lightly dust the fur with a dry wash cloth with a very small amount of pledge furniture polish. Do not wet your mount, It will ruin it!!
