Introduction of natural enemies, removal by alcohol-soaked q-tips, and treatment with horticultural oils and insecticidal soaps are ways to rid house mint plants of mealybugs. The scale insects in question can be controlled by oils applied to eggs and soaps applied to immature and mature stages and eliminated by such beneficial predators as ladybugs, especially the mealybug destroyers (Cryptolaemus montrouzieri). It also will be a good idea to check, and if need correct, for possibly improper heat, light, moisture and nutrient levels and for possibly improper soil conditions since repotting may be needed because of prior contamination or infestation or of incorrect attention to growing conditions.
