Blocking countries by IP address

What are the best ways to block access to a site from countries with undesirable traffic? I know there are commercial lists with listings of IP ranges by country; does anyone use them, and which is the best?

why block? why not redirect to a lightweight page that feeds toplists, or redirect to a sponsor that has sites in there language & billing manners?

I agree unless there is a compeling reason to totally block access it does make sense to utilize that traffic for what its worth (albeit not much)
