I will try these tips. I still do not understand why they are biting. One twin is worse than the other. Twin 1 did not bite until twin 2 keep doing it to her. Now twin 1 is getting just as bad. I believe twin 1 is just defending her self but not sure.

This probably won't be a popular answer, but biting them back or putting hot sauce on their mouth can cure biting. It worked on me as a toddler and my son. My mom let my cousins bite me back when I was a toddler. She said it took 2-3 times before I got the message. My son was biting as a toddler. I put hot sauce on his lips and he never bit again.
