Absolutely, the past tense of the verb 'scrub' is 'scrubbed'. Now, oftentimes in English, we form the past tense by adding -ed to the end of a regular verb. 'Scrub' is a classic case of this. So it's an easy one to remember – just add -ed and you've got 'scrubbed'. However, not all verbs follow this rule, which often leads to people getting confused. It's these irregular verbs that can be tricky, but 'scrub' isn't one of them!
