Not sure if I have Mealy Bugs or not
Question Not sure if I have Mealy Bugs or not

So I got a few orchids off ebay (I know I know), one of them clearly had something strange going on (misformed leaves and such) but all the others looked good. A few weeks later I keep seeing very small white puffs on the leaves of one of them. I wipe them off and they seem to come back but they are definitely not bug shaped, and are very small. I put it outside (with the other ebay sicko) and have been keeping an eye on it. I don't see anything in the bark, or in the creases of the plant (its a young catt so not much in the way of sheath or folds to hide in) and I don't see anything…just the randomly appearing puffs on the leaves. I dont really know if I can get a pic of it if I try…maybe with my macro. I just wanted to see if you guys had any experience with non bug shaped white fluff.
