Need help blocking unwanted "crawler"

Like the title says, i need help in blocking a "crawler" on my site.

The visitor comes from ."compute.hwclouds-dns.com" with an IP starting in 101.44.

it is crawling all my pages/products for days /weeks now. I tried the .htaccess method but no luck.

I also look into the Access Blocker plugin but I am not sure it would block this type of bots since it is noton the contact_us or login page.

Any help would be appreciate.

Thank you

Research indicates this may be a nest of Hong Kong cloud servers trying to fully list your site.

However, if you still want to block them, you are using Apache, AND your host has properly added mod_authz_host, add the following entry into your .htaccess file.

<IfModule mod_authz_host.c>
    Deny from 101.44.96.0/20
</IfModule>
