Debris in AC/heater blower

so I went to replace my cabin air filter and there was a little stick that somehow fell into the compartment and landed on top of the filter (fairly common to see pieces of leaves, etc on top of the filter). Well, when I pulled the filter, the stick fell down into the fan. And now when I turn on the blower, it kicks the stick around and makes noise.

How to I access this and get in there to remove the stick? I cant get my hand in there to reach the bottom. Nor can I see the stick. Any advice?

 

vacuum with long flexible hose

 

I'm not sure a hose is gonna fit in there. And in addition, flex to the bottom of the fan housing. Wonder if I can rig something up...

 

look under the glove box and you'll see the blower motor, just 3 little bolts hold it in

 

Awesome. Thanks!
