Talk to parents, get their written approval to put bitter apple spray on the erasers.

Agreed, putting something repulsive is the key here. This kind of strategy is used for nail biters as well.

That only works for so long. My mom got special nail varnish from the doctors that was supposed to stop me chewing my nails. Properly vile rotten stuff.
I ended up developing a taste for it.

That stuff typically only works if you want to stop.

My mom used to threaten me with hot sauce, but I love hot sauce.
