before you issue her with a formal written warning?

I used to think this was a battle not worth having. But it's unbearable. And rest assured I am no neat freak myself. But, I've gone over it with her time and time again. The duties are clearly outlined in the contract, and I have explained them on several occassions when it became apparent they need clarification and she needed reminding.

Would it be hasty of me to issue her with a formal written warning?

What sort of untidiness?

I've done that.

Give her a verbal warning first and make it clear it can't continue.
