EC2s getting harrassed by vulnernability scans from useragent Jorgee

I run a bunch of microservices on AWS Elastic Beanstalk. I set up alarms for anytime I start returning a large number of status codes and recently, I've been getting emails every 3-10 minutes all hours of the day.

Looking into it, its bulk wordpress/php related 404s from the useragent Mozilla 5.0 Jorgee, about 50-150 at a time. I don't use php so its not a problem, but the alarms are hard to get around. Don't want to cancel them and not know when something actually goes off the rails, but I can't afford to have my email blown up by bullshit.

First thought was just returning 200's but that's bullshit.

Suggestions and similar stories appreciated.
