phpmyadmin

I am seeing a lot of requests where users are trying to request PhPMyAdmin directory on my web-server and I would like to put an end to it. They try a few different directories like PhpMyAdmin-2.10 or just PhpMyAdmin or just PhpMyAdmin-2.09

Would Apache Re-write rule be the best thing to re0direct them to a blackhole that bans their IP from accessing the IP again?

Or

I could simply create these directories and put in a javascript redirect to black-hole them as well.

Thoughts on a good solution are appreciated.
