I have read this question - [Solar panels and hail][1] and my question is similar. I have the possibility that neighboring kids may throw stones at my roof top solar panels _**to scare off monkeys which are a local pest**_. 

What protection measures I can take as I do not think my insurance will cover that damage ?


I have been told  by my neighbor to use chicken wire. Will that reduce the output of solar panels ?

[Chicken wire][2]

**UPDATE**
Background - I stay in a rural area where monkeys are common. I also live in a hilly terrain and there are houses above and below me. So kids may **accidentally** throw a stone at a monkey when it is over my roof.
