So I put up a fox and just flipped it to be fur side out. It was a windy day, so I left it outside and some flies filled up the nose with eggs and it seems impossible to get them all out. Any advice on how to fix this issue? Freeze? Spray in the nose with insect killer?

I'd throw it in the freezer.

Rubbing alcohol will instantly kill the fly eggs and not leave any residue.
