I'd rather have a clean house. Why is it my fault that they don't clean?

I like a clean house, also, but why should someone in your household clean when they know you will?

Yeah, that's not going to work. It's just going to make the house messier. It is not going to encourage them to clean.

If you´ve already talked with them about that problem and nothing has changed afterwards, I don´t think not cleaning after them will net any positive results. At that point, either try talking about it again with more assertiveness or leave would be the only approaches I´d see working.

Technically you are encouraging the behavior I suppose.

Or if it's your home just kick them out.

I had 3 or 4 roommates in college who would leave their dishes in the sink for days on end, making the sink essentially unusable to those who wanted to do their dishes. Honestly I forgot what my other roommates and I did to encourage cleaning but I don't think they ever came around fully to cleaning up within a reasonable time frame.
