new visitor driving up my bounce/exit rate

One of my sites started to drop off a bit around late April and I assumed it had been happy slapped by the Panda or the Penguin. However on the 19th April I started getting 24 visits per day, every day, from [a particular service provider.] 100% bounce rate and exit on the home page.

Is this likely to be causing me problems? My main search term dropped from the first page about the same time. Unrelated or should I try to get rid of these visits somehow? Thanks.

You left out two bits of information.

Are those exactly-24 visitors coming in via genuine google searches?

Do you use GA?

There may be other questions I've overlooked. But the meta-question is: "How would google know this is happening?"
