Scale is a common problem. I had it a couple of years ago and it took some effort to get rid of. I used insecticide soap and sprayed all parts of the orchid with it. Then I took paper towels and actually wiped off all the scale. The next morning I sprayed the entire plant with an insecticide. I believe I used Orthene. A week later I sprayed the plants with insecticide again. I did this to 70 orchids. It took several days of work but in the end I had no scale. I haven't had any since but I always check my plants carefully.
