Before you put this on your child’s fingers you must taste this for yourself. If you cannot bring yourself to taste this then you shouldn’t put this on your child’s fingers. I put this on my child’s nails before I tasted this and once I tasted this I removed it off of my two year old daughters fingers. Both my wife and I would rather use a less horrible solution, such as Thum than subject anyone to this taste. My daughter quit eating my wife’s freshly baked sugar cookies the moment her fingers touched her mouth. She became very distraught to the taste of the Mavala on her fingers and we had to remove it.
Both my wife and I feel the use of this product is a form of child abuse.

My 5 year old won’t stop sucking on her index finger..we’ve tried a bunch of different products to stop thumb sucking and fingernail biting. All with little effectiveness.
I ordered this and another product similar to it and I swear she LIKES the taste of it. I’ve asked her if it bothers her or if is ‘icky’ and she’s told me no.
I’d say that’s a failure.
I wish I could say this helped at all, i’d like to find something nice to say about it (okay, it came nicely packaged) but thats about it.
I’d turn somewhere else to find a truely effective product to stop these habits.

We bought this for my 9 yr. old son who has Cerebral Palsy. We hoped it would discourage him from chewing on his hands. It didn’t phase him a bit! I tried it on myself and felt sure it would work for Ryan–it really did taste nasty. He doesn’t bite his nails, just his hands, so it was probably not the right product for us. We’re still looking for a fix!

I have a special needs child that continually bites his left hand. We have suspicions regarding neurological issues that fuel this compulsion. We tried this as a way to curb his hand biting in an effort to not have to resort to more drastic measures. It detered him for maybe 30 minutes ~ but that 30 minutes was filled with a HUGE meltdown after the initial taste was first discovered. While trying to restrain my son during this meltdown, I must have wiped my arm against my mouth and the taste is NASTY. I couldn’t get the taste out of my mouth for at least 10 hours and that is after multiple teeth brushing and mouthwashings with Listerine. My son has SUCH a compulsion he happened to develop an aquired taste for it within an hour so it didn’t happen to work for us, but we have Extreme extenuating circumsances.

I never received this item. I sent an email to the seller asking about it, and I never even received a reply. So obviously I am very unhappy with this order and would not suggest anyone else order it.
