Greetings:
Lloyd's got good points
also one other method to test if there is another queen present simply 
involves a three hole queen cage
one simply removes the screen and replaces it with perforated 
foundation .
the queen will be fed and released by other bees by chewing through the 
was if no other queen is present
if another queen is present they will attempt to seal over the holes
so you have to be vigilant to see that you don't loose the sealed in 
queen
