Hi Syrian Hammie,
Hamsters hate being ignored!
The more attention you give him when he chews his cage the more he'll do it. By ignoring him, he'll eventually give up realising it's not getting your attention.
With Archie this is what I did, believe me it was hard ignoring him at first but he got the message,

Spice sleeps in your room, is there another room you could put him in?
Whenever Archie started chewing his cage, I would do one of the following;
Tidy Up, Read a book, Listen to music or Switch on the TV.
You could try listening to music on your headphones, that way you won't hear Spice.
Get a good pair of ear plugs,

But, don't switch on the light, the moment you do that he's won and don't call out to him.
Good Luck!
