Phal JSC with pill shaped bugs??

[sweetjblue]

Hi everyone. I've got what I think might be a problem with my Phal Joy Spring Canary 'Yaphon'. Wondering if anyone can shed some light on what this might be. Never seen this before. They look like very little white and greyish/ tan balls. Some are bunched together as shown and they appear to be mostly on the roots but there are more singly on the moss. I only noticed them because the pot got watered today after going almost completely dry and they really stood out. I got as close as I could it the hopes that one of the experts here will know what they are and what to do about them!

I do know that their not mealies!

Thanks for any help/ideas that anyone has in advance!
