Only when the unit has no other terrain protection, such as open countryside, a beach or a bridge. There they cost infantry and armor attackers 1 die; on a town, forest, hill or bunker they add nothing to the dice reduction and only let the unit ignore the first flag. Artillery dice are never reduced. A hedgehog gives no dice reduction of its own, so sandbags there would still count.
