definitely on the floor for snakes 
not too much substrate over the top or it will insulate the heat from the snake, and therm/stat probe on top of the subtrate above the mat |
cornsnakes, ratsnakes, bullsnakes, boas and day geckos

| i find putting substrate over the top of the heat mat pointless,when i used to use a heat mat, my corn snake used to just remove it all when he used to coil up on the heat mat. no matter how much substrate i used , the mat would be bare and exposed within hours |
