Clean up your dump — or risk getting dumped.

More than half of Americans are turned on by their partner doing chores, according to a new survey studying the link between home cleanliness and romance — with a vast majority admitting an untidy home could be a dealbreaker.

The most alluring chore at all, according to experts at housecleaning company Homeaglow? Doing the dishes — an everyday act that could wind up sparking a night of passion, according to over 50% of respondents.

That’s if you even manage to get someone back to your house — nearly three in 10 of the 1,000 US-based participants said that they judge prospective mates based on the cleanliness of the rooms they see in dating profiles, while more than 75% said they would say no to moving in with someone if the house wasn’t spotless.

Four-fifths said the smell of a home mattered a great deal — with bad smells a huge turn-off. One in twenty said they’d broken it off with someone over an unkempt abode.

Respondents were screened to count only those who lived or had lived with a partner. In total, 66.7% currently lived with a partner, while 33.3% said they had lived with a partner. The ratio of men to women polled was nearly even.

“Having a clean house and being house proud is a great trait to have in a relationship. It tells the other person that you are responsible and organized and care for yourself and your belongings,” a Homeaglow spokesperson said.

“During dating, a clean and tidy home gives an overall impression that you are clean and like a clean, tidy house and appearance. If you like a clean house, you will likely be a clean person with hygiene,” they explained.

“It also helps present an image to a partner or potential partner that they don’t even have to try to help and organize your life; you are already in control of that area, which is a huge turn-on for a partner.”

Here are five tips directly from the pros at the popular cleaning service:

“Take a look at your bedroom. Do you use this space as a general area as well as sleeping, so, for example, do you use the bedroom to dry clothes, you don’t put them away, and there are dirty and clean clothes everywhere? Or things stacked up on top of each other.”

“Your bedroom should be a calm, inviting space. If there are things all around you, it will mean you won’t sleep very well. Your mind is cluttered, your space is cluttered, and then your life is cluttered.”

“Try adding candles and calming colors, and make your bedroom your’ go-to’ area for when you feel overwhelmed and need some time and space alone.”

“When it comes to being intimate in the bedroom, clutter and poor cleanliness can be a huge turn-off. It’s harder to switch off your mind and be in the mood for intimacy when things are falling on top of you, or they have dirty or unwashed sheets.”

“For great intimacy, you need to be in your ‘rest and digest’ nervous system (your parasympathetic nervous system. This allows you to feel calm and more in the moment rather than being in the sympathetic nervous system, you fight or flight mode.”
