After a year of looking around i finally found a opossum road kill that was not already obliterated. My question is, anyone know the proper way I should get the carcus to decompose and how to ritually prepair them. Im fairly certain I could whip something up myself but I’m curious to see what others have done.
I’m sure there are resources online for how to properly handle and clean the bones.
Now from a hoodoo perspective, you can take the animal and bury in the backyard. Keep it there for a few months, then ‘cook down’ what remains. Prayers/intentions/etc can be said during the burial and during the ‘sanitation’.
Had a friend do this with a road-killed black cat. Good for court cases/Law work.
I found an article online that said to put it in a sealed box with holes large enough for insects. So I took a rubber tub and hot glued the lid and drilled some holes. Its now sitting in the back of a lawn mower trailer. You can hear the flies from 15 feet.
I know one thing based on personal experiences. We had a dead raccoon a while back. Stunk to high heaven. So the one thing I know Is…. I’m definitely glad not to be your neighbour right now.
I live out in the country so I have no neighbors close enough to be effected. No smell yet. If it starts to stink ill drive the mower trailer to a corner of my property.
@Nephenthe You’ll definitely know if it starts to smell that’s certain. We had that dead raccoon smell near a week before we found the thing. There’s nothing like that dead coon smell first thing in the morning. Clear your sinuses right out.
