Rabbits are chewers. Their teeth are constantly growing, so they need to chew to keep them worn down. Provide plenty of rabbit safe wooden chew toys. Confine him to a certain area that has been "rabbit proofed". Secure all wires and move furniture or restrict access possible.
Correct inappropriate chewing immediately and provide a wooden toy. Praise and reward him with a small treat when he complies. Be patient and be consistent.
