You definitely can't let the swarm go to waste - you'll need both of them. And the cheapest way so is easily found.
BeJo : "Jacques, can I borrow two of your hives?
JB : <span class="mu-r">Sure thing bud! My pleasure! What do you need?</span>
BeJo : I don't know much about Warré. Found some swarms, so would two bodies be enough?
JB : <span class="mu-r">Well, you'll also need an entrance. A cushion. A roof. And a feeder.</span>"
Well, that was easy. Just like that, you have two swarms caught before anything bad happens to them. Like another beekeeper catching'em, or the Asian or Green Hornet finding them.
Jacques even took some time to help you set up. Entrance is a wood frame with a bee grid below; a grid for hornet is screwed to prevent the pests from getting in. Then, above the body, a plank with a round hole. The cushion is a square, four planks screwed to each other, letting room for the plastic open-torus of the feeder. Bees get up from the plank hole to the feeder, provided with honey-laced water.
JB : <span class="mu-r">So, the cushion let you put stuff like leaves to isolate better in winter... There are other winter tricks, but I don't know them. And I think there is some Varroa-mitigation built in... Can't recall it though. Paul Beesmuth knows quite well the hive, he might tell you more.</span>"
