It depends upon what you are looking for. In many cases, it takes time for the boards season: either to allow time for reptiles to feel comfortable, or maybe just to find them and associate it with shelter or a place to forage. If you lay items in areas where snakes and lizards forage, you will have a much better chance of finding them. Next, decide on materials. A large bodied snake such as a timber that crawls under a piece of tin or sheet metal during a hot summer day may be inclined to avoid that area during that time of day. Smaller, litter snakes such as dekays may be found under the same board, same time of day and season and feel cold to the touch! Once again, it depends upon what you are looking for.
Edges, as I read some speak highly of in an earlier post, is a way to get the best of both worlds mentioned above using cover boards.
One more thing, stratifying coverboards by stacking them or propping them is a way to provide would be users with a choice of temps ad humidities for thermoregulation. Hope this helps
