I had a nail biter. Two things worked for us:

1. Thum: a product that you put on their nails/thumb that is safe to ingest but tastes TERRIBLE!
2. Incentive: if he stopped, he got a meaningful reward.

Good luck!

Thanks for the recommendation...... he chose what his reward would be...a puppy! you think that would be enough of an incentive but he just cannot seem to stop. 🙂

That is a great reward. Hope he earns it. 🙂
