Yelling sure doesn't work.  I got Jenny to stop biting me
(and when she bit, it was serious work for her).  She
knows "no".  What I had to do was everytime she approached
me to be petted (which turned into a gnawing session) I
held up my hands in the stop motion and backed off saying
"no biting".  I didn't touch her for about a week, just
said "no biting" and stayed away.  When I finally did
touch her, she didn't bite me, but I continued to tell her
"no biting."  Of course, I felt awful not touching her.
The difference between Jenny biting and the Swarm biting
is that Jenny did it *every* time one touched her, the
Swarm bites intermittently.
