Thanks for that tip. I just ordered two more from Amazon, one to have on hand when I get back under there, plus one spare. I'll probably look again after the autumn leaves have finished falling.

I honestly didn't expect to have much - if anything - in there and was extremely surprised at how much had accumulated, as well as how much was still lodged up in the housing. The shop vac was key, but next time I'll put something down.
