In this paper, we are concerned with the existence and asymptotic behavior of traveling wave fronts in a modified vector-disease model. We establish the existence of traveling wave solutions for the modified vector-disease model without delay, then explore the existence of traveling fronts for the model with a special local delay convolution kernel by employing the geometric singular perturbation theory and the linear chain trick. Finally, we deal with the local stability of the steady states, the existence and asymptotic behaviors of traveling wave solutions for the model with the convolution kernel of a special non-local delay.
