This question has been wandering my mind for I while. Does Mikey Bustos have an ant species named after him? (I would think so from all he does to help research for ants and ant keeping) :D

Nah, that generally only happens when someone discovers a new species. I'm pretty sure he hasn't done that.
Proverbs 6:6-8

Go to the ant, you sluggard;
consider its ways and be wise!
It has no commander,
no overseer or ruler,
yet it stores its provisions in summer
and gathers its food at harvest.

If I discovered a new species I would name it Bustopomyrmex canadensis.

That literally means "Bustos ant", hence the topic name.
