Ad Credits Being Devoured

My ad free credits are being devoured by what I assume to be copious bots. My boards registered almost 400 guests at any one time, and I don't have anywhere near that level of traffic normally. Is there anything we can do to make it ad free for members and not guests? Otherwise I'm going to be refilling ad credits way more than I should need to do.

I already have built in checks to against bots I know about such as search engines those are never counter as pageview uses. If there are new bots that I don't know of though i can't track them though.
I do have unlimited ad free plan which doesn't use ad free credits.
