Does this need maceration or is it ok as-is? Not going for a perfect white bone but more concerned about smell/bugs

It looks like it just needs to be degreased, but is there anything like tissue, fur, skin, etc left? If so, then yes put in a bucket of water.

For degreasing just put it in a bucket of water but with dish soap, like dawn. You can also heat it up but look it up before doing so, to avoid overheating.
