Hello! I had a couple of Dracaena in my porch left unchecked. One was fine, one was covered in these tiny white things. (Photo is taken outside as I immediately took it away from any other plants, but it lived inside.) I’ve tried to Google but I’m not sure what they are, so any help is greatly appreciated, thank you!

One variety of 2000 species of mealybugs! Knock off as many as you can with a garden hose spray since the plant is now outside. Then, use a soapy dishwasher spray or neem oil. A weekly application is necessary until they are gone. Spray all the plants in the room since this infestation is huge. Good luck🍀

Apply the spray to the soil and under the pots. Mealybugs are sneaky and very mobile. 😁

Thank you, I’ll be doing just that
