It will soon be time to ditch the rubber gloves and vacuum cleaner as robots and drones will carry out 90 per cent of chores, according to research.
Robots 15 times stronger than humans are predicted to start appearing in households in the 2030s, costing around £25,000 at first.
Tiny drones, costing as little as £1, will be used in everything from picking up specks of dust to watering plants.

The Life More Automated report’s co-author, Professor Mischa Dohler, said: ‘Automation is already so commonplace in today’s households from washing machines to dishwashers that we don’t even really think of it as automation. But this report examines how it is the key to an easy home life as it’s gradually helping us do less of the tasks we find more tedious.’
