Guinea pigs are made to chew on things. They need wood and stuff in there cage 24/7 so they can chew it and keep their teeth down. If you have a wooden ramp then that is why it is chewing it. They need to chew on wood all the time, and wooden toys need to always be in there cage. Your guinea pig is chewing on the wooden ramp because that is what it is supposed to do. If you do not want it to chew on the ramp, then go get a plastic ramp because they will not chew on that.
