My friend used a product for this problem, that can be found in any store that has an aisle with nail polish in it...it is a bitter tasting clear "nail polish" that prevents you from biting your nails due to the terrible taste.
Nail biting is a "nervous habit"...you also need to figure out why you are doing this to yourself! Are you stressing over things when you start biting your nails??
At any rate, good luck with this and try that product from what I can remember it was only a few dollars!

Yea I used to bite my nails too, I know your pain
My mum found this amazing nail polish like thing for me. Its called Stop the Bite. Its a clear polish and tastes so bad. Its bitter and it gave me really bad stomach achs but it works. pretty soon you stop but just make sure that you dont lick your fingers when you're eating or something.

I only stopped when I was going to get married! lol I wanted my nails to be long and pretty for my wedding. I kept them painted with a clear nail hardener to help me, but otherwise I just thought about how I wanted to look on my wedding day. After that I didn't go back to chewing on them, I had broken the habit.
Another thing that helped was to get some fake nails put on-when I saw how great they looked I wanted to always have pretty, longer nails. :)

Mind over matter. Keep a pair of nail clippers handy. When you get the urge, clip your nails. That's how I stopped.

Put nail polish on. It tastes gross so you wont like biting your nails. Just put a clear coat on. I did that. i didn't like the taste so i didn't bit my nails.

replace them with screws? hmm... kidding, of course. try chewing gum. the main reason most people bite their nails is because their mouth wants something to do. if you have gum, your nails will survive!!

Try painting your nails with a product called Thum.
