Kathy,
You should not feed carrots everyday due to the carrots may cause liver problems.  You can feed carrots every 2 to 3 days or so.  
Carrots isn't a likely food guinea pigs would eat if they were out in the wild due to the carrot itself being in the ground.
 
Vinegar is used to help prevent or minimize bladders stones since it has an acidic base that would help dissolve the stones before they would form into larger, more painful ones.
 
As for the tea made from yarrow and cleaver to prevent bladderstones, I don't know anything about this.  Hopefully someone more experienced with bladderstones can help.
 
Lisa
