i too use it on K9's ears, nose and arm pits.
You just can't start it like a car or stop it with a gun

Heck, I use it on the whole hide... Inside and out....
I start out fleshing and cleaning the hide... I then give it a good shaking in the borax tub... I use one of those 8 gallon plastic tubs - I put it on the board flesh out and leave it until it is ready to turn... I then turn it and put it back in the tub for another good shake and it goes on the board to dry...
Using a fan it cuts the drying time by about 1/2 or better...
After it comes off the board, I pop the pelt several times and it goes on the storage racks, then when it is time to get the fur ready to ship... I blow the fur down really good with an air compressor, blowing the fur from the tail to the head... then brush it.... it works for me....
Good Luck and God Bless you and yours,

Borax also works good as a bug proofing also. Works much better than salt on your turkey fans and beard.
