Which translation to trust? "Don't pick your nose."

It seems like the google translate is the best, but I'm not sure. My son and his girlfriend were over, and I asked my son a question. He was ignoring me and rubbing his nose, so I joked at him and told him to stop picking his nose. Then, since they are both taking Spanish, we wondered how to say it in Spanish. "No se molesta la nariz" seems a little generic to me. Is this really what a Spanish person would say?

I think the (or one) right translation would be "No te hurgues la nariz". Don't ever - EVER - trust automatic translators.

Hi jenny, welcome to the forum 
Your suggstion would not be understood.
No te toques la nariz (if he was just touching it) No te hurgues la nariz (if he was picking it)
