There are many steam cleaners already on the market you can make your decision by checking review forums about steam cleaning brands I personally use the H2O MopX5, I always get a good carpet cleaning from it and use around my house for many other things.
A number of theories about the reasons for having toe and fingernails abound. Most relate to human evolution, suggesting that they are related to the claws which other members of the animal kingdom have. Fingernails especially are highly useful to perform daily tasks, and toenails sometimes come in handy as well, depending on the situation. While toe and fingernails may be vestigial remains of our wild past, most people who have lost nails agree that they are much more valuable than they look.
One theory about fingernails and toenails suggests that they are designed to protect the delicate nail bed. This supposition has been dismissed by many doctors, who point out that people who permanently lose nails develop tougher nail beds. It seems more likely that the delicate tissue or quick under the nail evolved in response to the presence of fingernails, rather than the other way around.
The more likely reason for the presence of fingernails and toenails is that they are useful. Fingernails help humans to scratch things, peel fruit, open things, pick away the outer layers of other edibles, undo knots, and perform a variety of other tasks. In a more distant past, fingernails probably assisted humans with the capture of body lice, as is still seen among the great apes. When the feet were used more like hands, toenails served a similar function, helping humans to open vital food objects, strip bark to build structures, and other such things.

What should be done to stop the habit of nail -biting?
You can you Germ-X or any kind of hand sanitizer that tastes bad. So when you go to bite your nail it tastes gross. Its kinda like punishment for biting your nail in the first place. So when you do break that habit you rewarded with pretty healthy nails! hope this works for you! :)
