I think the legal justification for the law that LL is responsible for pest control in MF is because the tenant cannot control what comes under the wall from the neighbors. The LL bears more responsibility because he controls who the neighbors are by his selection of tenants, and because he has more skin in the game when it comes to being pest-free -- tenants are transitory, LLs are forever (at least until they sell!).
