Going by the vibes I am getting from your post I would say social services wouldn't get involved. It's not that he is unable to look after himself or that he is unable to make his own decisions.
I would be more concerned that your parents are living in a house like this to be honest, can't be good for your mum or dad.
They are not even that old and maybe he is doing it just to annoy her. Perhaps getting them to go their separate ways would be a step in the right direction?
I really don't know what I would do in this situation to be honest, but I think social services could advise but couldn't perhaps wouldn't actually intervene.
Give them a call and see what they say, if anything you might get a bit of support too.
Can't be easy watching them live like this and not knowing what to do for the best.
Keep us posted xxx
