    I am sorry to say it could be mealy bugs. Check all your plants. I just went through this and fingers crossed, I hope they don’t return. 🤞🏼🤞🏼

      Oh lord. I’m just now getting through spider mites… this is the only plant I’ve seen it on, and I didn’t see anything moving at all on this plant. That could be hope I hope? lol- do I just look for the same white spots??

    Ive dealt with mealy bugs before, it’s not ideal but totally treatable! Quarantine your plant, spray with Neem oil, and wipe EVERY surface to get rid of them. Repeat once a week until they stop coming back

      See I’ve had a horrible experience with neem oil before.. I diluted it quite heavily, and it still gave over half of my plants chemical burn :( so I’m scared to use it now..

      I’m going to check out the others on that shelf now. I may just get rid of the plant / any that are potentially infested, I’ve been using dish soap/peppermint extract and washing for the spider mites. In reality, I need to do a complete reset and just clean every single surface and rearrange that room anyways lol

    If you want to avoid neem oil, you can use rubbing alcohol. Soak a q-tip in it and touch any cottony mealybugs directly to kill and remove them. Wipe the rest of the leaves with a paper towel that's damp with hydrogen peroxide, since that's more gentle and can act as a preventative. Monitor the plant, get any mealies when you see them, and do preventative treatment every 5 days. The lifespan of mealybugs is about 31 days, so if you're clear for 2 months, you can be certain they're gone.

    I had them on orchids I rescued. I should have quarantined them. 🥺 They spread quickly. Neem did not work for me. I used a systemic granule pesticide and 70% rubbing alcohol on a large cotton swab to wipe directly on the mealy bugs. I checked everyday for two weeks. So far, so good!
