Oohh thats tough. I would probably use a spoon and if I couldn't scoop them out, I'd trickle some 1:3 parts peroxide on the top of them. The white mold doesn't necessarily mean they are going full root rot.

What plant is it?  
Any house plants I’ve seen don’t start little shoots like that. I think that little green thing is something else entirely. A random seed got in your soil and made itself at home is my think.

Tree ivy is what the tag said

Interesting. I don’t recognize the name as specifically, so I can’t speak to it exactly, but I would still assume the little green thing isn’t part of it.  
A picture of the foliage would help us identify if the little green shoot is part of it or not.
