Dorene,
How about brassicas of some sort, or brassicas alterrnating with buckwheat? There are some mustards that deter some pests. I don't know much about it because we avoid brassica cover crops because we grow so many brassica food crops and have harlequin bugs. There are forage radishes that some people use as cover crops. The SARE publication that Richard Robinson linked to has a wealth of free information on cover crops.--
