Good to know
Most of our jobs have nothing to do with a crime

So if there’s blood, fluid or an odor anywhere at your home or business in McFarland, call us. We remove it, disinfect what’s left and treat the odor at its source, so the space is safe to live or work in again.
- Natural and unattended deaths
- Falls, injuries and medical emergencies
- Blood and fluids, removed and disinfected
- Death odor treated at the source
- Crime scenes, once police release them

Our services
Crime scene & homicide cleanup in McFarland
We clean crime scenes in McFarland homes, apartments, cars and businesses, and we start as soon as the property is released, day or night.
Blood and tissue are infectious waste under Wisconsin rules. They leave the property with us, packaged and manifested, never in a household trash can.
How we handle it
Investigators sometimes cut out carpet or drywall, spray chemicals or leave print powder everywhere. We clean all of it and add any damaged doors, windows or drywall to the rebuild so you aren’t left with holes.
In lake homes and family subdivisions, contamination often reaches the next room or the next unit. We check shared spaces in McFarland every time.
- Evidence cut-outs and debris cleared
- Fingerprint powder lifted
- Hallways, stairs and nearby units checked
- OSHA bloodborne pathogen safety
- Licensed infectious waste disposal
Unattended death cleanup
Unattended death cleanup in McFarland
When a loved one passes at home in McFarland and isn’t found right away, the cleanup is bigger than anyone expects. We take it over from the moment the Dane County Medical Examiner releases the home, so your family doesn’t have to open that door again.
Fluids move down. They soak carpet and pad, slip through seams in vinyl and hardwood and settle into the subfloor. That’s why the stain you see is never the whole job.
How we handle it
Every death cleanup gets a written scope before we start. It lists what comes out, what gets cleaned and what it costs. You approve it, and if we find fluids reached somewhere new, like the ceiling below or the next room, we stop and call you before we do anything about it.
In McFarland, we see this most in lake homes and family subdivisions. Robyn knows how these homes are built, which matters once fluids have reached the floor below.
- Removal of carpet, pad and drywall that can't be saved
- Subfloor cleaned, disinfected and sealed
- Odor treated at the source
- Belongings set aside and cleaned when possible
- Licensed biohazard waste disposal
Blood & biohazard cleanup
Blood & biohazard cleanup in McFarland
Biohazard cleanup in McFarland covers blood, bodily fluids, feces, vomit, animal waste and drug residue in homes, rentals, cars and workplaces.
We work after hours for businesses, so a store, an office or a restaurant can open the next morning as usual.
How we handle it
Blood and bodily fluids are handled as regulated waste under OSHA’s bloodborne pathogen rule and Wisconsin infectious waste rules. That means protective gear, safe handling, sealed packaging and a licensed disposal facility.
In McFarland, blood and biohazard calls come from homes, cars and workplaces. Businesses near the Lake Waubesa shore often need us after hours.
- Homes, cars, rentals and workplaces
- After-hours work for businesses
- Waste manifested to a licensed facility
- Written record for safety files
- Same-day service when possible
Suicide cleanup
Suicide cleanup in McFarland
Losing someone to suicide is devastating. In McFarland, our techs handle the bedroom, bathroom, garage or car with care, and set aside anything personal for you.
Mattresses, bedding and upholstery usually can’t be saved. Tile, hardwood, concrete and many hard surfaces can, and we clean and disinfect them thoroughly.
How we handle it
We keep everything private. No signs, no talk with neighbors and no details shared with anyone but the person who hired us.
If the Dane County Medical Examiner is still involved, we can help you understand the timing so you don’t have to chase phone calls.
- Cars and garages included
- Disinfection and deodorizing
- Insurance claim filed for you
- Local grief resources if you want them
- Quiet, low-key arrival

Hoarding cleanout
Hoarding cleanout in McFarland
We help families in McFarland clear homes after years of buildup, saving photos, papers, cash and keepsakes along the way.
We keep a found-items box for papers, photos, cash, jewelry and anything else that might matter, and we hand it over at the end of each day.
How we handle it
Biohazards are common in hoarded homes: animal waste, spoiled food, sharps and sometimes a death that went unnoticed. We handle all of it with protective gear and proper disposal.
In McFarland, we can schedule cleanouts in stages and come back for follow-up visits.
- Deep cleaning and disinfection
- Photo updates if you're out of town
- Follow-up visits available
- Plan agreed with the family first
- Room-by-room sorting
Death odor removal
Death odor removal in McFarland
We treat odor in McFarland homes, apartments and cars at its source, then use professional deodorization so the space smells like nothing at all.
When we’re done, the room should smell like nothing. If it doesn’t, we come back.
How we handle it
We use professional deodorization: thermal fogging for porous surfaces, hydroxyl generators that can run while people are nearby, and ozone only in empty spaces where it’s safe. Each has its place, and we pick the right one for the job.
Robyn has cleared odor from homes all around the Lake Waubesa shore. If someone else already tried, we’ll find what they missed.
- Final room-by-room check
- We come back if odor remains
- Source found and removed
- Subfloor and framing sealed
- Thermal fogging and hydroxyl treatment
Rebuild after cleanup
Rebuild after cleanup in McFarland
If flooring, subfloor or drywall has to come out in McFarland, we put it back. One company, one scope, one insurance claim, from the first call to the finished room.
Flooring, drywall, trim, doors, paint and fixtures are all part of what we can rebuild.
How we handle it
Our rebuild is part of the same plan you approved for cleanup. We seal the structure, then replace subfloor, flooring, drywall, trim and paint, and match finishes as closely as we can.
Robyn keeps the rebuild in McFarland under the same scope, so you never manage two crews.
- Final walkthrough with you
- Structure sealed before new materials
- Subfloor and flooring replaced
- Drywall hung, finished and painted
- Trim and doors replaced
Tear gas & fingerprint powder cleanup
Tear gas & fingerprint powder cleanup in McFarland
Fingerprint powder is the surprise after a break-in in McFarland. It smears if you wipe it. We lift it from doors, frames, glass and furniture without spreading it.
We HEPA vacuum every surface first, then wash, then clean the ducts and change the filters. Fabrics are laundered or replaced.
How we handle it
We check rooms before you move back in. If anyone still feels irritation, we come back and clean again.
If police used tear gas in your McFarland home, call before you open windows or run the furnace. We’ll tell you what to leave alone.
- HEPA vacuuming of every surface
- Tear gas and pepper spray residue removed
- Fingerprint powder lifted without smearing
- Ductwork cleaned and filters replaced
- Fabrics laundered or replaced
Under the floor
Why McFarland floors need more than scrubbing
Blood and fluids from a death or a serious injury move down through carpet and pad into the subfloor, and in older McFarland homes with plank floors, into the ceiling of the room below. Scrubbing reaches only the top layer, which is why the smell comes back on the first warm day.
We come now in McFarland.
A lot of cleanup companies take a message and call you back tomorrow. We don't. The tech who covers in McFarland lives nearby and starts driving while you're still on the phone, with the equipment already on the truck.
- A real person answers, any hour
- The closest local tech heads out right away
- Equipment on the truck, no second trip
- Nothing starts until you approve the plan

MadTown Biohazard Crime Scene Cleanup, at 608-974-1788. Robyn covers McFarland for us, and the whole crew comes in on big jobs. We answer any hour, and nothing is due up front.
A biohazard cleanup company does, not the police, the Dane County Medical Examiner or the funeral home. In McFarland, families call MadTown Biohazard at 608-974-1788 once the Dane County Medical Examiner releases the home.
A trained biohazard crew. In McFarland that’s MadTown Biohazard at 608-974-1788. We find the blood and fluid that’s easy to miss, disinfect everything and keep the whole job private.
No. The McFarland Police Department and the Dane County Medical Examiner investigate and release the home, but they don’t clean it. That’s left to the family or property owner, and it’s the work a biohazard cleanup company like ours does.
No, that isn’t part of a funeral home’s work. They take care of your loved one. We take care of the home, and we can work around your funeral plans in McFarland.
Call 911. The McFarland Police Department and the Dane County Medical Examiner will come, and nothing should be moved or cleaned until they release the home. After that, close off the room, turn off the furnace or AC fan to it if you can, and call us at 608-974-1788.
Yes. We pick up any hour at 608-974-1788, and the tech who covers McFarland, Robyn, heads out once the property is released.
Usually insurance. Homeowners, renters, landlord and business policies often cover cleanup after a death, crime or accident, and we bill the insurer directly. If a crime was involved, Wisconsin crime victim compensation can help too. Nothing is due up front.
There’s no flat price, because no two scenes are alike. We walk through, write up the scope and price, and you approve it before any work starts. Insurance often covers most or all of it. Our cost guide explains what drives the price.
It isn’t a good idea. Blood and body fluids can carry bloodborne pathogens like hepatitis B and C, and fluid usually soaks deeper than you can see. A small spot on tile is one thing. Carpet, a mattress or a subfloor is a job for a trained crew.
We do. Air fresheners and carpet shampoo won’t fix death odor in a McFarland home. The source has to come out first, then the area is sealed and the air treated.
Call 911 first, then MadTown Biohazard at 608-974-1788 once the Dane County Medical Examiner releases the unit. We clean the unit, check the units beside and below, set belongings aside for the estate and document everything for your insurer.

Yes. If flooring, subfloor or drywall has to come out, we rebuild it under the same plan, so you deal with one company from the first call to the finished room.
Right after police or the Dane County Medical Examiner release the property, any hour. We’ll tell you who is coming and when before you hang up.
Help is still available. We walk you through Wisconsin crime victim compensation when a crime was involved, and we give you the scope and price in writing before any work begins.
Yes. We wait for the McFarland Police Department to release the scene, follow any instructions officers leave and keep a line open if investigators need to come back.
Yes, and it’s a common request. We’ll have the home cleaned before family gathers, or come after the service if that’s easier.
