Oh cactus, my cactus!

Can someone help me? My cacti and succulents get this weird fungal growth on them. It looks terrible and eventually they become quite unhappy. What is it and how do I go about curing it?

    I stand to be corrected, but I *think* it might be white scale. It’s actually a small bug that sucks the sap out of plants leaves. Please check out Sunbird Aloes website about how to treat it. https://www.sunbirdaloes.co.za/aloe-hybrid-content/caring-your-aloes.
    Good luck – hope you can fix it!
