All decidious trees in area having needles turning brown. Could it be an insect? Should I spray? With what ? Do not want my blue spruce to die.

get a hold of a forester. normally you can contact them through your state DNRC (Department of Natural Resource Conservation) They can send someone out to look at your trees. Some pines will do a needle cast every 7 years or so naturally. But it could be bugs or some other stresser.

Pines lose their needles over a period of time and replace them with new ones. That is normal. However if your tree is experiencing mass needle loss all at once, your tree could be sick or in decline. There are numerous pine diseases. Do a search online for pine tree diseases or call your local forestry office and have a forester come out and look at your tree.

It could be something like beetle kill. There were areas in CO a couple of years ago that just had trees dying all over the place due to beetles. I'd suggest going to Lowes or a local garden store and asking their opinion. They are in your area and have the knowledge that you need.
