Question Bearpaws & snow

Hopefully someone may have a solution, but we are often distracted in the snow by calls of "something's fallen off your 'elicopter". Needless to say, it's always a chunk of snow shedding from a bearpaw, after take off. At least, so far it is

Any snow operators (Canadians or Kiwis, I'd guess) have this problem, or even better, a feasible fix? Bearpaws are Dart style thermoplastic jobs, only on the aft end of the skids.

TIA
