Forgetting to turn the lights off when leaving a room is the biggest source of bickering between couples, according to a survey of 2,000 adults by YaleHome. Additionally, 19% of people said that not wiping down kitchen surfaces and 17% of people said that damp towels being left around are also big causes of arguments. Matters of home security placed fairly low on the list, with only 7% arguing over not double-locking the doors at night and 5% arguing over leaving the windows open when no one is home. Furthermore, the quantity of arguments vary across the UK, with couples from Sheffield and Stoke-on-Trent having the most arguments about household tasks, with a whopping eight arguments a week.
