way thinking of this approach next year if the hives build fast in April

are they a good way of keeping chances of summer swarming down?
Was fancying this way due to wanting to get to 4 hive this year without buying bees or queens plus I don't fancy looking for an unmarked queen in a bursting box of bees in the height of summer again( marked was bad enough) and the fact the queen vanished when I did an AS this year despite no apparent loss of any bees
