The & is +a and if you read the docs it signifies Channel Admin status . You can simply tell the bot to -a or change its status so its just +o when it enters the channel . Unless your bot needs to be +a you may as well downgrade it to +o .

or, recompile your IRCd; during install it asks you if you want prefixes, say NO if you don't want those prefixes. And if you do /mode #Blah -a SUPERMAN then regular Ops can kick him which I'm sure you don't want.

bots from anope are using umode +q, so that won't work

AND if you do /mode #chan -a SUPERMAN it would automagicaly +a itsself.

Since when do Anope bots use +q [founder]?

. I've not used Anope myself in a while, but previously it used +a, and on all current Anope networks I'm on, it's using +a..

Anyhow:

You can't instruct Anope what modes to give it's bots. This is a preconfigured, built in setting.

The prefixes [removal of &] has already been delt with.

* ChanBot (ChanBot@ChanBot) has joined #channel
* ChanBot sets mode: +ao ChanBot ChanBot
* Mark sets mode: -oa ChanBot ChanBot
* ChanBot sets mode: +o ChanBot
* ChanBot sets mode: +a ChanBot

Anopes bots set +ao to themselves when they join a channel. If you want to change this, I suppose you need to modify the sources.
(Couldn't find a module for Anope.. Was looking a bit fast over them though)

Note however that modifying source WILL void support.
