Just so you know... the flick thing really isn't a flick. Just as with cats, no pressure has to be applied, and it doesn't need to hurt in any way... most animals just can't stand to have their face tapped. It startles the heck out of them. It helps to never use more than one finger (even with cats), and with sgs the pinky because then you know you won't be hurting. But if I find any more solutions I will let you know! By the way, I only tapped him two times total, both on the same day about six hours apart, and he hasn't bitten since. It's only been a day and half, but it's a start, at least. Good luck!
