Different Options: There are a few ways you can stop biting your nails. One way is to pick one nail and not bite that one for awhile, once it has been about 2-3 weeks notice how good that nail looks. Then, pick another nail and don't bite it for awhile, continue this until you aren't biting your nails anymore. Another step is to keep yourself occupied, chew gum or do an activity that requires using your hands.

See below: There are nail polishes available, which are bitter. This may help stop the habit. Sometimes, i suggest bitter apple spray, which is available in a pet store. It is non toxic.
