King Scrub is a rural locality in the Moreton Bay Region, Queensland, Australia.[2] It is located on the northern outskirts of Dayboro.
King Scrub has some areas of rich farmlands which are now being developed as estates. Currently the most dominant estates are Avelon Downs and Park Lands estate. Both developed in early 2000.
