Default Debris in cabin airbox on my 2011 Ford Ranger XLT

How do I remove debris from the cabin air box on my 2011 Ford Ranger XLT? It is clearly on the inside of the screen. I have removed the blower motor and saw leaves on the inside of the screen

I don't know what you mean by "screen", but if you are referring to the evaporator for the AC and that cavity as a whole, then a shop vac will remove the debris.

The screen is what you see when you remove the blower, which is directly aft of the squirrel cage of the blower motor. It isn't the evaporator. It is clearly just a screen that separates the outside from the inside. I have to get to the aft side of this screen to remove the debris. Thanks!

My debris is on the aft side of the firewall which is divided by this screen I reference.

Bummer, I've already reassembled because it was clear that the problem was not in front of this screen. It's inside the cabin

I thought most rangers didn’t even have a cabin air filter...

It doesn't have a cabin air filter but it has a screen at the firewall that I need to get on the aft side of to remove some leaves. I just don't know how to get there.
