Clearing debris from refrigerator drain hole?

Hi,
I took the panel off my refrigerator to replace my defroster heater. While I was putting the screws into the panel, a screw dropped into a narrow hole (I think it’s the drain hole, right?). I don’t know how to get it out. Is there a way to get the screw out? I’m afraid it will block the flow of water and damage the refrigerator.

Thanks for your help.

You might try a small magnet or go to an auto parts store.They carry a graphel looking parts pickerupper that may reach.

sound like the drain hole. you gotta get it out or the water will collect inside.
Soo a hole has 2 sides. try coming up from the bottom with something

Get a mechanics magnet.The kind that is about 3 foot long and the shaft is about 1/4 round and the shaft is flexible and you should be able to weave the magnet down the hole and be able to retrive the screw.
