Besides a UTH, I'd invest in a ceramic heat bulb. They're a little bit more expensive but they just produce heat without light. BPs do fine with natual day light (for which they usually hide anyways) and red/black light at night bothers them.

I'm not sure where you got your information about the red/black bulbs bother them, but you're wrong. I'm assuming you mean the black bulbs as in like moon glow and stuff. Now as far as a black light black light that makes stuff glow, then yea, I'm not sure if that bothers them or not. I'd probably lean more towards yes, but that bulb doesn't put out heat anyways, or not much if I remember from when I was a kid and owned one.
