Post Body

I've noticed a few white spots on my ficus benjamina cuttings last weekend and I'm hoping these aren't mealy bugs. I have 15 such cuttings growing in cups and cocopeat compost in my balcony and just two have developed these spots. A similar white spot was noticed on a zz plant as well but it looks slightly different. Can someone help me identify this pest and suggest what should I do? P.S. It has been raining quite heavily for the past couple of weeks and there is a lot of moisture in the air. Not sure if these conditions encourage certain pests to breed
