I think they can check them anytime they want to, but they mostly do it at the end of the game or when a pitcher is leaving the game. I don't think they have found much, but I don't watch all the games so I'm not sure. Once I saw them take the glove away and put it in a plastic bag like it was crime scene evidence.
