Mealy bugs, fungus gnat, white fly, scale, and various mites are all typical parasites that attack indoor plants and can spread from one to the other.

Mealy bugs, Gnats, Mites, Scales, Aphids, Thrips, White Flies, House Flies, spiders (though they dont do much harm. They actually do good!!! ) Each pest causes its own little issues with the plants but most can be eliminated using and indoor plant pest spray.

The key to eliminating scale is to treat even the ones that you cannot see. That means thoroughly drenching all leaf and stem surfaces until they are dripping wet. It is also best if you repeat this treatment all over again in 5 to 7 days to catch any crawlers that you missed the first time.
