Millions of Brits reckon live in homes even they describe as a 'pigsty' - because they are too busy to clean, a study revealed today.

Researchers found seven in ten Brits are unable to find the time to take care of everyday chores such as vacuuming, dusting and cleaning the bathroom. 

Fifty-seven per cent of people even admitted they have times when they would describe their home as a 'pigsty' because they never have a chance to tidy it up. 

More than one in five have even refused to let people into their home because it was in such a mess. 

A spokesperson for cleaning product firm Spontex, said: "We are leading busier lives than ever and when you are juggling so much, it's inevitable that something has to give. 

"And it seems that for many, staying on top of their household chores and keeping their home spotless is what they are letting fall by the wayside. 

"But this means that many Brits aren't happy with the state of the home, and it's alarming to see that so many even have times when they would describe their home as being like a pigsty.
