If you’re not expert enough or hosting provider is not allowing access to edit .htaccess.Then you should consider installing some 3rd party module.
One such module is PrestaShop Block IP that allows adding spam IPs in a block list.Some additional features supported by this plugin are; - Show custom message to block IPs - Redirect to other websites.
