Cactus - Fungus

Hi all,

Thanks for taking the time to go through my post. Please see attached picture, I see fungus like residue on the Cactus. I transferred the cactus into a slightly bigger pot along with some fresh new soil, just 3 days ago. Any advice would be greatly appreciated . Thank you .

    It's mealy bug and can be difficult to get rid of.  Keep the affected cactus away from others and treat with Resolva Bug Killer.  It did work but took multiple applications.  Remove as much as you can with something like a cocktail stick and use the sprayer in the jet setting to blast them off.
