What is wrong with my phalenopsis orchid?

dbrcymry asked:

I have an orchid that is about 8 years old–just finished flowering (looked great–had about 35 flowers this time). Now I am noticing a sticky white fuzzy residue on the underside of the leaves and along the edges. Does anyone know what this is and how to take care of it? The plant looks very green and healthy otherwise. So far, I have just washed it off the leaves with water. Thanks for your help–I don’t want to lose such a great bloomer!
