My cactus keeps getting these little tiny fuzzy white dots on it. I have scrubbed it with a toothbrush and vinegar water but it just comes back. The cactus seems to be unbothered. Any idea what I should do?

Treat for mealybugs.

If the fuzzies are where the spikes are it is just normal cactus growth

It’s between the spikes. Kind of looks like mold

If it looks like the picture of my cactus it is good. I think it will be fine to treat for mealybugs but this looks normal to me. 🤷🏼‍♀️

It’s soft and shows up between the spikes and all over. Easy brushed off with vinegar water. Shows up all over.
