First: move it away from other plants.  
Then: Alcohol and Q-tips and kill those suckers with the alcohol. Then get you some neem oil, mix with water and a dash of dish soap and spray the plant real good with it. Do that weekly and until they’re gone. Keep a close eye on the plant.  
Lastly: check all other plants.

please don’t use dish soap on plants! it’s usually much too harsh. castile soap is ideal, i use dr bronner’s peppermint because the essential oils can kill and repel bugs

Thanks for the advice! Good thing I have a whole bottle of dr bronner’s on hand! I use it for washing my chickens.

What causes mealy bugs? Hope this is better now!

Alocasia can be susceptible to bugs cause there are so many nooks and crannies that they can live in. I’d take the advice of using a mix of Dr bronner’s liquid soap, mixing with water and spraying the plant down after you’ve removed the little suckers! Stay diligent with your alocasia’s inspecting them every time you water/fertilize
