Default Putting out fertilizers!

My yard people are coming this Wednesday. I am going to put out some
fertilizer, should I put it out now before they mow the yard or after? It's
not supposed to rain until the weekend. I don't want to put it out and then
they mow and move it around. Or will mowing move it around?

If they bag the clippings, I guess it's possible some of the freshly
applied fertilizer could get kicked up and removed with the clippings,
so probably better to do it after mowing and before rain. Doubt it
amounts to much though. If the product contains any herbicide or
pesticide, then I would not put it down until after they mow as no
need to have that there to get kicked up into the air.
