Could these be scale bugs? Male
Default Could these be scale bugs?
Hi all. A newbie and a first-time poster here.

I am having trouble identifying bugs I discovered in the humidity tray beneath my Phal. From what I was able to tell from searching online, they look a bit like a male and a female scale (or possibly mealybugs?).

Does anyone have an idea of what they are and how dangerous they are to orchids?

Sorry for the blurry pics but these suckers are tiny (~0.1") and not very photogenic.
