Pica or Curisoity?

My son has always been putting things in his mouth. He chews on the window sil, door handles, dirt outside,clothes, gym equipment, hair ties, cardboard boxes,....feels like anything he can get his hands on. Two people suggested I get him evaluated for Pica...but I'm holing this is just a phase?....but I should....right...?

Literally going through the same with my two year old son but he likes paper. He’ll legit bite and rip paper into a million pieces and messed the entire house up with it. Idk what it is but my daughter didn’t do it so I think it’s just boys lol.

From my experience of 4 children past this age it's not very normal..

I have a boy and he stopped putting things in his mouth or chewing objects around 15 months old. Would be a good idea to get him evaluated.
