Mealybug
White, cottony masses on leaves and stems.
Solution
Remove small infestations with a damp cloth. For severe infestations, try Yates Conqueror Oil. Test on a small inconspicuous spot first before a more widespread spray as succulents can be quite sensitive to oil-based products.

Plants turn yellow or brown and leaves rot, or plant dies.
Solution
Reduce watering frequency, allowing soil to dry out between watering
