Oh yeah 😱 In some places in the tropics really only the fridge is safe from ants getting into everything otherwise. They bite their way through regular plastic bags no problem.
God, the ants in Turks & Caicos were a nightmare, and food is crazy expensive. People who live there must have all their shit locked down or they'd be broke in a week. I always say I want to live somewhere tropical, but that had me rethinking some things.
Locals probably pay a different price than tourists. I have never been there specifically but this seems to be the rule in places where there is large income inequality between people who live there and visitors.
I'm not sure - we went to the grocery store in the residential area. We always do. It's just expensive to ship anything, so islands are always really pricey.
