Nearly half of the nation feel anxious hosting in their home – because of the mess left behind by guests.
A poll of 2,000 adults found a third (33 per cent) don’t like having more than 10 people in their abode and 57 per cent don’t enjoy hosting as they can never feel relaxed.
Other worries include stains on the carpet (56 per cent), things getting broken (52 per cent) and neighbours complaining about the noise (46 per cent).
The study was commissioned by SharkNinja, in line with its new vacuum the Shark CarpetXpert Deep Carpet Cleaner.
The company has taken over pub in London's Fitzrovia and renamed it The Carpeters Arms – the only pub that encourages you to spill your drinks on its white carpet - after the research found 34 per cent feel anxious that guests would drop their beverages on the carpet when watching TV and their football team scores.
