    I would wait until early spring. The plant will recover better from being moved if it is transplanted then.

    I would consider planting your raspberries in bottomless 5 gallon buckets or some other kind of tub. Removing the bottom of the bucket allows the roots to grow down with plenty of room to grow but keeps them from growing outwards and invading other spaces.

    I would recommend neem oil. It is organic and safe for humans, animals and beneficial bugs. Here is more information:

    This answer I gave for transplanting raspberries may be of help......... Rather than take cuttings I use the runners that pop up. From each cane I usually get 2-5 “runners” (growth from the original root pops up as new cane). I dig these up, cutting the root back from the original cane, soak in warm water for an hour & then plant in a pot until established, then give away or plant a new area of my garden. Works for me.

    This should be fine, though you may want to add more space between them if possible.
