They feel threatened or scared in some way
It is very rare for a gerbil to bite, they are mostly really friendly and docile. They only bite when the are being mistreated, hurt, or really really scared. They sometimes also bite if you have been handling food like banana because they mistake you for food and try to 'eat' you. If your gerbil bites, don't get rid of it. Try holding it with gloves every day and remove the first glove in 4 days or so, then the other one in the next 4 days or so. If they have had bad experiences with handling before, that may cause them to bite, so be calm and perhaps give them treats like milk drops or apple so they associate handling with positive things. :)
