Where can I get a comprehensive soil test? (PH, N, P, K, %organic, composition, etc.) Also, I live in Pennington County, does the extension have access to bare root trees suitable for rural windbreaks? Thank you

need suggestions on choosing 4 foot tall dense evergreen shrub for creating a thick privacy barrier
I am look for a 4 foot tall dense evergreen shrub that will make a thick privacy barrier;when planted close together. They will be planted in an area that is near evergreen conifer trees. The area is a low area that puddles up ONLY during heavy rains. Most of the time the area has damp soil but no standing water. I would prefer something that didn't need a lot of pruning or time to maintain. Our yard is in the country and is large. Please offer a 2-3 options that may fit my need.

Picnic Beetles
I have quite a few raspberry plants and over the years the picnic beetles have taken over all the plants, what is the best course of action? Are they dormant in the soil or do they fly into my yard in the spring? Is there a pesticide I could spray in the soil in the spring or are they not effective and I should just put traps out to catch and kill them. If it’s a trap what is the most effective?
