I know it's not what you're asking but for the future try fail2ban. I
can gladly post a simple how to here for FreeBSD.

It's a very simple solution but I have been keeping off pests quite
well with fail2ban. I think it's an awesome and simple framework to
automatically ban IPs and they just move on to the th next server. In
fact you can see the bannings diminish in time as they are the one
that get tired ;-)

Good luck,
