    Put a queen excluder on the apidea with a newly hatched Virgin queen. then take it off when you have a video camera ready, hope for a swarm, then observe, wait for queen to return, put excluder back on

    sacrifice the queen a day after she returns to the apidea to see if she is still a virgin or a mated queen ?
