Jasmine - losing leaves rapidly...help!

Hello,

I have an indoor plant that I thought was jasmine, but from reading older posts it may be Murraya paniculata. Either way, for the last few weeks it has been losing its leaves rapidly; drying up and falling off. It has lost about 65 percent of its leaves. I am in an electronically heated apartment, a cold climate, and hoping that spring will inspire blooming leaves and flowers.

Any explanations? Solutions?

Thanks.

Too wet, too dry, has mites...

 

In inspecting the plant more carefully and researching, I have found that this jasmine has some scale insects. Could this be the problem? What is the best way to rid of them?

thanks.
