What are the spots on the leaves of my plants

White spots on a bird's nest fern often signal pests like scale, mealybugs, or spider mites, appearing as powdery or cottony specks, while they could also be mineral deposits, fungal spots, or even normal new growth fuzz; inspect closely to determine if they're pests (wipe off with alcohol-dipped swab for scale/mealybugs) or mineral buildup (hard water), isolating infected plants to prevent spread.
