We show that the total number of non-torsion integral points on the elliptic curves $\mathcal{E}_D:y^2=x^3-D^2x$, where $D$ ranges over positive squarefree integers less than $N$, is $O( N(\log N)^{-1/4+\epsilon})$. The proof involves a discriminant-lowering procedure on integral binary quartic forms and an application of Heath-Brown's method on estimating the average size of the $2$-Selmer group of the curves in this family.
