As a contractor, I would use stainless steel trim screws (available at Home Depot). Because they’re stainless, they won’t bleed, regardless of what species of wood you use. Depending on the style of siding (vertical or horizontal lap) you may have some small hole filling, prior to your final finishing of the siding.
