odd requests in nginx logs

on my forge server in /var/log/nginx logs im seeing requests from an ip address in UK (i have no clients there) showing:

/601.7.7 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/9.1.2 Safari/601.7.7"
5.189.226.102 - - [31/Aug/2018:05:23:03 -0400] "GET /admin/assets/js/views/login.js HTTP/1.1" 301 194 "-" "python-requests/2.19.1"
5.189.226.102 - - [31/Aug/2018:05:29:39 -0400] "GET /admin/assets/js/views/login.js HTTP/1.1" 400 280 "-" "python-requests/2.19.1"

What are the best ways of preventing some of these types of repeat requests other than explicitly whitelisting a firewall? can i block an IP that makes a bunch of repeat requests in a short duration?
