Well, most of them don't live more than one season, but yes, they do hibernate if they get the chance. Ladybirds hibernate during the winter in sheds, trees and houses. Sometimes the heating in houses can wake them up early and then they will starve because there is none of the aphids that they usually feed on. If a ladybird is crawling about in your house you should put it in a cold garage or shed where it will continue hibernating.
