What do I do for this white fuzzy stuff that’s growing on my pothos leaves? When this happened last summer on one of my succulents I put them outside and it burned off but now it’s winter and I am not sure what do do.

That is a mealy bug infestation. Clean off all you can see with a swab dipped in alcohol. Spray with Neem oil. Keep an eye on it for any that may escape treatment.

You have a mealy bug infestation. You can use rubbing alcohol on cotton balls for the leaves and Qtip for gaps. Or if you have neem oil or you can get a plant insecticidal soap. Make sure you get it all. Plus quarantine any other plants away from this one because they can catch those pesky critters.
