Stop wiper blades from detaching when wiping?

I have p&h hooks on my car for wiper connections. I use Bosch Ion wipers. They just sit in a hole on the wiper, there is no locking mechanism. For the year I've already lost two wiper blades. When wiping the blades would simply pull themselves all due to the force of wiping, since there is nothing to hold them in place. Is there a better blade I can use?

There is a locking mechanism, there is a finger on top of the wiper arm that holds the blade on when the blade is slid onto the peg of the arm and rotated into position. If this finger is bent or missing, the blade could easily come off. I don't use Bosch blades. so I don't know if they are made to fit the wiper arm correctly.
