Help please….. my ficus tree is losing leaves and has a tiny amount of powdery substance on it. I’m in Colorado and have a humidifier right on it. What should I do ?

Looks like it could possibly be mealy bugs. Look up some pictures and see if it matches up, although I hope that’s not what it is! 🤢🫡
