Mojo is a full on biter, Not a nipper he will draw blood if not careful around the mouth area but other than that he is a sweetie pie.
When I have had pigs that are biters I have blown in their faces everything they bit and they soon learnt that biting = being blown in the face and soon stopped biting.
Mojo hasnt picked this up. Anything I can do do attempt to stop this.

His biting has gotten worse since Smudgie pig died a few months ago. Mum wont let me try boar dating with mojo, she is refusing to let me get more animals as "its too sad when they die"
 
It is sad when animals die, but that is life....I am sorry Mojo is a biter. I used to have a rat like that, nothing I would do would change him, so I used to have to handle him with gloves on. The next one I had was totally different. I guess we are all individuals.
 
I have a biter too. Is he an abysinnian by any chance? ;)
Is there any particular time he bites?

I dont think so he is a smooth hair, Unless there are smooth haired Abyssinian guineas

I have had him treated for mites by the vet, she didn't think he had any but just treated him anyway as a just in case
I've tried holding him in a towel and he will just attack the towel or what ever he can grab.
He will snuggle down then just suddenly lash out if you put your hand near him.

its not one of his warning signs that he wants a wee, He just squeaks and will not settle down
