Overlapsphere issue with laymask

Hello,

So I'm using an overlapshere to get an array of enemies in a radius, however, im using a layer mask to only find the enemy objects and I have no idea why it's not working!

My enemies are tagged with "NPC" and my unity physics settings allow the tower layer to collide with the NPC layer.

Code:

 private void Awake()
     {
         targetLayer = LayerMask.NameToLayer("NPC");
     }
 
     private void Start()
     {
         InvokeRepeating("CheckForTargets", 0f, fireRate);
     }
 
 
     private void CheckForTargets()
     {
 
         print("CheckForTargets() Called!");
 
         hitColliders = Physics.OverlapSphere(transform.position, attackRange, targetLayer);
 
         if (hitColliders.Length > 0)
         {
             print("hitColliders.Length > 0");
 
             target = hitColliders[hitColliders.Length - 1].gameObject;
         }
     }

The print("CheckForTargets() Called!"); is working, but it's not finding any objects.

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance!
