Quick n dirty split method.

Making splits from double hives without finding the queen.

If you dont move the queen have you really alleviated swarming?

[@glennsnaturalhoney4571]

Surprised you didn't knock out the emergency cells before installing a new queen.

[@philbeeman]

She will cut them down.

[@user-Sandgrounderhoney]

That is correct... BUT she may also be murdered and the bees may just not kill the emerging others ... your chances are higher knocking down all cells ​@@philbeeman
