I agree with everyone else, just keep him in the cage with deep substrate/bedding and a house without a floor. You can still give him tubes in his cage and lots of safe places, I think it’s a good idea to have the lower levels darker.
I think he chews the bars to get you attention as he want to get out - but he can’t, so cover the bars with the hemp or straw mat, I sew mine on the bars using safe thick cotton/string. Give him a whimzees to chew or a slightly cracked walnut. Try not to react to the chewing, but react when he isn’t chewing - if you can.
It may be that you won’t be able to handle him but that’s okay, it’s his life and it may be his choice
