This has been a problem at airports ever since these laser pens became widely available.

There's no way to trace exactly where it came from.

Needle in a haystack I would say. People would need to be caught in the act. Personally, i think laser device usage should be regulated and controlled, but there is already a vast number imported from other countries, so the horse has already bolted.
