Chewing on Coroplast

[Guinea Pig Dad]

My guinea pig has recently started chewing on one particular corner of the coroplast. What can be done to prevent this? I'm afraid he has injested this stuff and cause harm.

Thanks in advance.

Here is how I solved the problem:

It is a small aluminium profile that fits perfectly on top of the coroplast ;-)

You can also get the report binders that kids use for putting sheets of paper in a plastic cover. The binder edge slips nice and snugly over the edge of the Coroplast. I still have to add that page back to the main site.

Also, most pigs don't chew on the cage when there is LOTS of hay available for them to chew on.

You can also get a wooden dowel cut to the length of the side plus about two inches and just secure it through the grid holes on the ends at the same height as the Coroplast edge. That gives them wood to chew on instead.
