Duc,

They could be insects such as scale or mealybugs or whiteflies. I suggest you take a sample to your County Extension Office and see if they can identify the problem and if necessary prescribe an appropriate remedy.

Their contact info is:

Pinellas County Extension Office, 12520 Ulmerton Road, Largo, FL 33774
Phone: (727) 582-2100

Thanks for the question. Please stop in again soon!
