My marble pothos has little white things on the leaves, soil, stems…. And the leaves are turning more yellow. I’m not sure what to do. This has never happened to my other plants. What do I do?? Do I repot? I truly have no idea what to do with this poor plant and would love help
Isolate it from your other plants! And wipe off the pests with dish soap or Castile if you have it. Repotting/soil exchange might be helpful but I would buy some neem oil and/or systemic granules to keep them away. Also remove any damaged leaves and yellowing leaves tend to attract bugs. But It’s ok! Pests happen.

Are you sure it’s not mealy bugs? Treatment is different for bugs versus mold/fungus/mildew. Dab one with rubbing alcohol on a cotton swab. It will drop off if it’s a mealy bug. Isolation applies in either case.

I am fairly certain it’s mealy bugs… I treated an outbreak recently in a black Alocasia with neem oil all over the plant and soil, I am finally out of the woods! They love to hide in the crevices of where the stems meet the vine, and in brand new (still curled) leaves 😤 Good luck!

1000% mealy bugs … just lost so many plants from buying an infected string of hearts online and it spread to others. They suck the sap from your plants until they die.
