You can buy this stuff at drugstores called Bite-No-More and it is this stuff you put on your nails that if you were to bite your nails it tastes really nasty.

Answer 6

Unfortunately, willpower is probably the only way. I bit mine until I was 30 and had tried what I thought was every method. Finally I just decided not to do it anymore. I had a few back slides (boring lecture) but made it through.

Answer 7

get NO BITE from one of your local drug stores and paint it on your nails it taste so nasty that you won't want to put your fingers in your mouth make sure that you continue to paint it on everyday and eventually you will associate that nasty taste with biteing your nails and not want to bite them anymore!  

Answer 8

eat real food.
