You have two choices:
1. Smack yourself evry time you do it
2. Dip your finger in something bitter, and every time you bite or suck it, smack yourself and dip your hands in it again.
soon, you'll get tired and just stop sucking or biting your fingers.

Whenever you are sitting down, try sitting on your hands so it prevents you from biting them.
It is also harder to bite them when they are short, so make sure you clip them short.
If you don't like nail polish, try putting on a clear nail polish.
You are unable to see it, and it stops you from biting them because of the bad taste.

Well, first see if it's stress or something that causes you to bite your nails. Maybe if you did something to relieve the stress, you wouldn't have the urge to bite your nails.
Here's a link to webmd, that has some information on it. Hope this helps. It tells what you can do to stop it.

Well------stop biting your nails & just go straight for your anus.
Licking your butt has less bad germs than chewing your nails does!
It is TRUE!!!

Will-power the only good advice I can give to you, not unless you want fungus or gang-green, and then what loose a finger or two...Just stop put chili or go to a Walgreen's and go ask a pharmacist for advice or your doctor...
